Automatically Default Selections as Other Properties are Selected


Previous Page  Next Page

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.
