Assigning Descriptive Elements
For each model and option class bills only, you can specify a list of item catalog descriptive elements. Values are assigned to catalog descriptive elements when new configuration item are created. The descriptive element value of the chosen option is assigned for each descriptive element.
Prerequisites
To assign descriptive elements:
1. Navigate to the Descriptive Elements window. Do this by choosing the Elements button from the Bills of Material window.
For model bills, you can only specify a descriptive element name within the model item catalog group. For option class bills, you can specify a descriptive element name from any catalog group.
When you order a configuration, Bills of Material automatically creates and assigns the configuration item to the model's item catalog group, and assigns values to the descriptive elements in this group.
