This activity is used to create and manage configuration rules for sub compatible unit templates. Compatible unit template structure is made possible to hold possible sub unit alternatives required by the design. A rule can be defined on every sub compatible unit template, by adding appropriate rule conditions. These conditions are evaluated, based on the configuration criteria inputs later in the configuration phase. This can be performed in Compatible Unit Template Navigator page Sub Units tab.
A compatible unit template rule can be consists of conditions. Condition allows here to define logical expressions to determine selection criteria based on specific configuration values or ranges of values. If the expression is true, the execution item template is picked to be included into the new compatible unit. The absence of a condition means that the original requirement will be inherited by default.
A sub compatible unit templates not in state Released must exist.
As a result of this activity, a rule will be created for sub compatible unit template and available for evaluation.
