DEF-L Features & Options Defaults (Evo-ERP)

Field Explanations

Mandatory Feature?

If the majority of features will be mandatory, set this default to Y.

Display Duplicate Option prompt?

In a future version, if you have options such that when one option is chosen, such as color, where all subsequent features containing color would use the same color, you can have the Duplicate Option prompt display which presents three rules to determine how you want duplicate options handled.  If duplicate options are not a factor for your products, set this to N and the duplicate options prompt will not be displayed at all.

Duplicate Option Code?

If you plan on using the duplicate options capability, you can select a default duplicate option code.  The values are.

1 = Display options - regardless of duplicates.

2 = Do not display - add duplicate to order.

3 = Do not display - do not add duplicate to order.
