Effectivity

The Effectivity tab displays the effectivity by each configured context or by a consolidated view of all configuration contexts for the instance. You can view evolution effectivity that contains model version and manufacturing plan criteria either by graph view or text expression view. Only the text expression view is available for all other types of evolution effectivity criteria.

Note: If there is no effectivity defined for the instance, the following message is displayed: No Effectivity is set on the Instance

View selection Specifies the view mode for the evolution effectivity:

View Mode Description
Text View Displays the evolution effectivity as an text expression. This is the only option available for unit and date criteria.
Graph View Displays the evolution effectivity in a revision graph. This option is only available for model version and manufacturing plan criteria. This option is not available for complex effectivity expressions.

Evolution selector Specifies the view mode for evolution effectivity:

Evolution Mode Description
Projected View Shows the effectivity after the changes are approved using a change action.
Official View Shows the most recent view of the effectivity before changes are approved through a change action.

Model version Shows either the revision graph or lists the names of the model versions included in the evolution effectivity, depending on the selected view mode.
Manufacturing plan Shows either the revision graph or lists the manufacturing plan included in the evolution effectivity, depending on the selected view mode.
Date Shows the date range included in the evolution effectivity.
Note: This field only displays if date effectivity has been enabled by the Administrator and has been defined.
Unit Shows the number of units included in the evolution effectivity.
Note: This field only displays if unit effectivity has been enabled by the Administrator and has been defined.

Note: If there is no evolution effectivity defined for the instance, the following message is displayed: No Evolution Effectivity is set on the Instance

Variants and Options Section

Field Description
Criteria name Lists the selected variant values and options for the context model, which define the variant/option effectivity.
Note: If there is no variant/option effectivity defined for the instance, the following message is displayed: No Variant Effectivity is set on the Instance
