Create a new error check

Not all permutations of option values in a module may be permitted. For example, in the refrigerator freezer example, the Top Application and Bottom Application cannot be set to the same value of Fridge. You should create error checks to warn the user of unsupported combinations when they configure a module. When the user tries to set the option value combinations specified in the error check, Teamcenter displays the defined message.

Caution Do not create error checks on global options as they will not be executed. To create an error check:

Procedure Select the module on which you want to create the error check (typically, the top level) and click the Error Checks button. Teamcenter displays the Error Checks dialog box, as shown in the following figure. Error checks dialog box Make the following entries in the dialog box: Choose the type of error check from the Severity list, which may be one of the following: Error If an error condition occurs, Teamcenter displays an error message and the user may not configure the specified combination. Warning If a warning condition occurs, Teamcenter displays a warning message and the user may set the specified combination. Information If an information condition occurs, Teamcenter displays an information message and the user may set the specified combination. In the Message box, enter the text of the message you want Teamcenter to display. In the Condition box, specify the combination of option values that triggers the error check, from options on the parent module only. When you have made the appropriate selections, as shown in the previous figure, click OK. Teamcenter displays the result in the data pane, as shown in the following figure. Error check in data pane
