Configure a structure by selection

You can configure a structure based on the Product Configurator-authored variants used in a structure element. This method of configuring a structure is called configure by selection. Based on the variability of the selected elements, other elements are configured in or out of the structure, which enables you to validate all possible and valid variant combinations according to your product configurator-authored variant definitions.

Restrictions and limitations You can configure a structure by selection only if the structure is indexed by using Smart Discovery Indexing and your Teamcenter setup has the Context Management User license.

Procedure Search for a product structure on which variability is set by using Product Configurator variants.
