Customize a product configuration model

Completed

In the "Build a product configuration model" section, you examined how to add subcomponents to the product configuration model, and you also added attributes for each component to help describe the features that are associated with the components.

Several options are available to help you further customize how and when subcomponents and attributes display on the Configure line page:

  • Attribute groups - An attribute group is used to group the attributes for a root component or subcomponent in a product configuration model. You can group similar attributes to display together to help the user better understand the product features.

  • Arranging attribute groups and subcomponents - You can arrange attribute groups and subcomponents to display in a specific order on the Configure line form. Ordering the attribute groups can help organize the attributes in a logical sequence that displays when you are testing the user interface or configuring an order line.

  • Hiding attributes - Attributes can be hidden and not displayed in an attribute group on the Configure line form when you are testing or configuring an order line.
