Siebel Product Administration Guide > Configuration Constraints > Creating Configuration Constraint TemplatesWhen you create and save a constraint, the constraint becomes part of the customizable product or product class. The constraint is not visible in other customizable products or product classes. When you create and save a constraint as a template, it is added to the list of templates. The list of templates is visible in all customizable products or product classes. Create templates for those constraints that you will use with several customizable products. There is a single template list for customizable products and product classes, so any templates you create are available for both. Templates that refer to items in one customizable product or product class cannot be used to refer to items in another customizable product or product class. Items include products, relationships, links, links and resources. For example, you write the following constraint for customizable product CP1 and save the constraint as a template called A Requires B: You also have customizable product CP2, that includes Product A and Product B. You want to write the same constraint for CP2. If you use the template A Requires B in CP2, you will receive a validation error when you validate CP2. This is because each item in a customizable product receives a unique item ID. This item ID is what the application stores as the item name when you create a constraint or a constraint template in a customizable product. This ID is not transferable to other products with components. NOTE: Constraint Templates cannot be edited or deleted. This is to prevent unintended problems across multiple products with components or product classes where templates have been used. To create a constraint template
