Structure Management ─ Deployment and Administration

Index a structure with a closure rule

Administrators can index a structure with a closure rule to skip a sub-assembly or leaf BOM lines from structure indexing. Such lines do not appear in Active Workspace. These subassembly or leaf BOM lines do not appear in in-context search results and are not considered for index synchronization. The closure rule based filter can be applied per indexed configuration. The input file line format is as follows: item-query-string | item-revision-ID | base-revision-rule | effectivity-unit | effectivity-end-item-query-string | effectivity-date (dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss) | variant-rules | subscribers | closure-rules For example, if an administrator is applying a BOMExpandSkipByItemType closure rule while indexing with variant rules vrule1 and vrule2, then the input file for the bomindex_admin utility is as follows: Copy item_id=HDD-0527 | B | Any Status; Working | 5 | item_id=HDD-0527 | 31-May-2013 00:00:00 | vrule1:item_id=OwnItem1:B,vrule2:,vrule3:item_id=OwnItem3:A | | BOMExpandSkipByItemType If the closure rule is updated, removed, or replaced, the administrator must trigger re-index.
