The ability exists within the system to default one property based of the value of another.
In the example shown above, for the MNP product line, when a user chooses the value of LA-15 for the Laquer property, the Color property on the Configurator screen will change from what ever value it was to a default value of Antique Bronze Bisque.
Note: The user is not limited to just this value. Rather, this is simply the default value given a previous selection.
To link a property default:
From within the product line maintenance form, go to the tools menu and choose “Linked Property Defaults. The following form will open.
1. | Choose the product line that you would like to work with from the drop down box. |
2. | Under the Property Values, choose the controlling property and its Value. |
3. | Press the insert key on the keyboard to insert a line. |
4. | Under the Default Property column, choose which property is being controlled. |
5. | Under the Default value, choose which value to default to. |
Note: Press the insert key to add in as many different properties as needed. Only one default value per property can be chosen.
