Define Part Defaults per Node

Explanation

This activity is used to enter default values for each node in an assortment structure. You can enter defaults for ordinary nodes as well as part nodes. These defaults will be inherited by the parts which are created per site through the assortment.

Prerequisites

• The assortment structure must have at least one node.
• If you want to enter characteristic defaults you should have defined a characteristic template for a node somewhere in the branch.

System Effects

As a result of this activity the nodes in an assortment will have default values defined for them. Therefore any parts that you create per site through the assortment will have these default values predefined for them. If a default planner and buyer are not specified, the default values will be fetched from the values defined, if any, in the Sites per User window.
