Configuring Effectivity Management

Effectivity Management of Part BOM structures is available in the Product Engineering (PE) application. This enables expressing Effectivity conditions of Parts within the BOM and resolving BOM structures against these conditions. As an Administrator, you can configure and customize some aspects of Effectivity Management in the PE application, such as:

  • Creating additional Effectivity Variables and Effectivity Scopes.
  • Customizing the Effectivity Scope Builder Method for custom business logic.
  • Configuring Query Definitions for structure resolution logic.
  • Configuring Tree Grid Views to display Item and Relationship properties.
  • Configuring Permissions that determine who can manage Effectivity information.
Note
The effs_ name prefix is used for the ItemTypes that belong to Effectivity Management.
