Items

An item in an exclude constraint can be any of the following:

• A relationship or class within a relationship

• A product within a relationship or class

Here is how the exclude constraint works with items:

• Product A excludes Product B

  If Product A is present in the solution, then Product B cannot be present. If Product B is present in the solution, then Product A cannot be present.

• Relationship A excludes Product B

  If any product in Relationship A is present in the solution, then Product B is excluded. If Product B is present, then no product from Relationship A can be present.

• Relationship A excludes Relationship B

  If any Product in Relationship A is present in the solution, then no product in Relationship B can be present. If any product in Relationship B is present in the solution, then no product from Relationship A can be present.
