Configuring Products

You can configure the default states that determine whether a product is frozen or obsolete.

See Properties for Products.

  1. Create or open the text file for customized properties. For more information, see Editing Properties Using MQL.
  2. To change the default states that determine whether a product is frozen, follow these steps:
    1. Add or edit this line in the file used to import properties into a page object:

      ProductLine.FrozenStates.type_Products = policy_Product.state_Release,policy_Product.state_Obsolete

    2. Set the value of these properties to the symbolic names of states in the Product policy as required for your business processes.

      The default values define the Release and Obsolete states in the Product policy as being frozen states.

  3. To change the default states that determine whether a product is obsolete, follow these steps:
    1. Add or edit this line in the file used to import properties into a page object:

      ProductLine.ObsoleteState.type_Products = policy_Product.state_Obsolete

    2. Set the value of these properties to the symbolic names of states in the Product policy as required for your business processes.

      The default values define the Obsolete state as being obsolete.

  4. When you are finished updating the text file with all properties that you want to modify, use the text file to modify the emxProductLine.properties page object. For more information, see Editing Properties Using MQL.
