Siebel Product Administration Guide > Configuration Constraints > About Start and End Dates for Configuration ConstraintsFor each constraint you create, you can set effective dates that control when the constraint is active. You can set both a start date and an end date. On the start date the constraint is used to compute all solutions presented to the user when they configure a product. On the end date, the constraint is no longer used to when computing solutions. Specifying start and end dates in combination has the following effects:
The start date is determined using the Siebel server's system date. The start and end dates work as follows in relation to the date the product is released (release date):
When you are validating a product, you can temporarily activate or deactivate constraints in the current work space by clicking the constraint's Active box in the Constraints List. This lets you simulate how the constraint will behave on the start and end date. For example, you can test a constraint with a start date in Validate mode using the following process:
You can specify start and end dates for constraints when you create them or by editing constraints after they have been created. |
