Moving a Product Configuration

You can move one or more product configurations from one revision or derivation of a model version to another revision or derivation of the model version under the same model.

Notes: The following restrictions apply to moving product configurations:
  • You cannot move product configurations associated with a model or logical feature. Moving product configurations is only supported between model versions.
  • You cannot move a product configuration that has an associated top level part, regardless of whether a PBOM has been generated.
  • You cannot move a product configuration if the source model version is in the Obsolete state.


Before you begin: The product configuration that you want to move must be in the Preliminary state. A variant or option group must already be associated with the target model version for a product configuration to be moved to it.
  1. View the list of product configurations for the model version. See Product Configurations Page for a Model Version or Logical Feature.
  2. From the toolbar, click Move Product Configurations From .
  3. Select one or more product configurations to move to the target model version.

    The maximum number of product configurations that you can move at once is set by your Business Administrator.

The selected product configurations are moved to the target model version:

  • The user-selected and user-rejected options of the moved product configuration are retained in the target model version.
  • The auto-selected options of the moved product configuration are recomputed based on the target model version.
  • The auto-selected and default selections of the product configuration are updated on the target model version based on its rules.
  • All context-specific rules are run against a product configuration after it is moved, to update the conflict status of its selected options, regardless of whether rules were disabled on the source model version.
  • If there are variants or option groups associated with the product configuration that are not in the target model versions's dictionary, they are ignored when the product configuration is moved.
  • The product configuration's Derived From field value is not changed after it is moved.
  • The product configuration's total price is recalculated after it is moved.
