Creating Configuration Resources


When you create a resource, it is added to a dialog box. You can copy this resource definition to other customizable products and edit the definition as needed. In turn, the edited definition is added to the dialog box. When you remove a resource from a customizable product, it is removed from the dialog box.

All resources have the data type number. They can have only numeric, integer, or floating point values.

To create a resource

  1. Navigate to the Administration - Product screen, then the Product Definitions or Product Classes view.
  2. Select and lock the desired customizable product or product class.
  3. Navigate to the Resources view for the Work Space version.
  4. In the Resource Administration list, add a new record and complete the necessary fields, described in the following table.
    Field
    Comments

    Name

    Enter the resource name. Use this name to refer to the resource in configuration constraints. The resource name does not display to the user.

    Since a resource name can be used by more than one product, avoid making the name product-specific.

    Description

    Enter a description of the resource. This description does not display to the user.
