Configure a structure with a closure rule for expansion

Configure a structure with a closure rule for expansion A closure rule holds subsidiary rules that define the objects of interest in a given structure. The rules determine if an object is included in a given structure based on their types, classes, and the relationship between them. Typically, a Teamcenter administrator creates and adds closure rules. For more information about closure rules, see Managing closure rules in PLM XML/TC XML Export Import Administration in the Teamcenter documentation.
