Edit variant conditions for an operation

Often, the variant option is defined in the engineering bill of materials (EBOM) or the manufacturing bill of materials (MBOM). The assigned parts in the EBOM or MBOM contain the variant condition, and they affect operation applicability. However, if an operation does not have assigned parts, you can set the variant condition directly on the operation.

Caution

We do not recommend using classic variants with Teamcenter Easy Plan, because Active Workspace is dropping classic variant support in version 6.2. If your environment contains classic variants, please migrate to Product Configurator variants before the Teamcenter Easy Plan 6.2 release.
