      In Configurator BOM Designer, I can select an item that I have created as a Configuration.

      When the QTY of this item is 1, I have added an additional line (time) where I set the quantity to 30.

      However, this Configuration also contains an optional selection. If this option is chosen, I would like the line (time) that is currently QTY = 30 to automatically change to QTY = 45.

      Is this possible to achieve in Configurator BOM Designer? If so, what would be the best way to set this up?

        Hello Thomas,

        This use case can be interpreted in a few different ways based on the description, regardless it should be achievable using the Product Configurators Rule Builder.

        In the first part of your description, you select an item that you have created as a Configuration (Option Choice Type = Configuration). To set a Qty of 30 for the additional line (Code = Time) when the Configuration line = Qty 1, you can create a Rule for the Configuration line e.g., when Configuation.Qty ‘is equal to’ 1 -> Set Value ‘Time.Qty’ to 30 (within the When Condition is True field). From the Configurator BOM Designer, this will set your Time Quantity Per Unit field to 30 once the user enters a quantity of 1 within the Configurations Quantity per Unit field.

        In the second part of your description, you have an optional selection within the Configuration that when selected must trigger time to Qty 45. This is a bit more challenging because your sub-configuration has to trigger a result directly to the parent configuration. To do this, you will need to use the Copy From Sub-Configuration field within the parent configuration in tandem with a Rule e.g., when OptionalSelection.Choice ‘is equal to’ OptionSelection (the component) then Set Value Time.Qty to 45. From the Configurator BOM Designer this will set your Time quantity to 45 once you add a quantity for the OptionalSelection line (or it will set the qty 45 automatically if the optional selection was chosen first within your sub-configuration).

        Thank you,

          Thank you for your reply.

          I have managed to set up the first part, but I cannot get the second part to work. I can find the fields as you described, but I cannot find the rules.

          Could you show me an example of the configuration and what values should be entered in the different fields? A screenshot or a detailed example would be very helpful.

            Hello Thomas,

            Rule Builder use cases are best discussed during a live session. We can go over the necessary setup and fields that are required.

            Please submit a support request to [email protected] for further assistance.

            Thank you,
