Activating Root Items

In a Multi-Model session, you can display the parts implemented by either one or several root items in the System Editor and the buildup.

Before you begin: Load a Multi-Model session, that is, a session in which several products (root products) can be realized by several items (root items).
  1. In the section of the action bar, click Filter PPR Content .
    The Filter PPR Content panel opens. It displays as many root item widgets as there are root items in the session.
  2. In the root item's context menu, select either:

    • Filter whole item structure to hide the item's whole structure
    • Filter all other items to hide the structure of all items but this one.

    Click OK or Apply.

  • In the PPR tree:
    • The item's whole structure is hidden for all items on which the Filter whole item structure choice was selected. An icon appears on these items to indicate that they are filtered.
    • The item's whole structure is hidden for items others than the ones on which the Filter all other items was selected. An icon appears on these items to indicate that they are filtered.
  • The children items of the filtered root items are not displayed.
