Attention: If you are assigning a ship set or a ship model complete configuration to a delivery, you must assign the entire ship set or ship model complete configuration to the delivery. A delivery line cannot be assigned to a delivery by itself if the delivery line is part of a ship set or ship model complete configuration.
Attention: If you are assigning a ship set or a ship model complete configuration to a delivery, you must assign the entire ship set or ship model complete configuration to the delivery to keep the entire ship set or ship model complete configuration together.

The ship set or ship model complete configuration will no longer exist.
