| In order to work through this example, you must have completed the examples Delete the Derived Structure of an Order (if you have already derived an order) and Assign a Variant Wildcard to a Default Variant.
| Select Start > Orders > Orders.
| Select the order ORD-1000-B EP Ball Pen.
| Select the tab Positions with the left mouse button.
| Select the item ART-1000-B EP Ball Pen.
| Select Create order spec. structure from the context menu. Now, the order is derived, i.e. an order-specific bill of material is created which takes account of variant wildcards and optional items (if appropriate).
| If you have not created default variants or optional items, Agile e6 displays additional queries. If this is the case, select the appropriate example.
| Before the structure can be derived completely, Agile e6 requests to select a variant. For this purpose, Agile e6 displays the appropriate Selection of Default Variant mask.
| Click the button . The list of default variants is opened.
| In the list, click the default variant Deluxe Model.
| If you do not wish to select a default variant, click the button OK. Then all items for the variant wildcard are displayed for selection.
| Agile e6 automatically enters Deluxe Model in the field. Accept the selection by pressing OK.
| The Variant form ..., mask appears, displaying only those items assigned to the default variant. In the selection mask, select the ART-1200-A Ornamental Ring (silver).
| The variant is now added to the structure, and the structure derivation is completed.
