Manage unconfigured data in a product view

You can use several menu commands to show or hide unconfigured objects in the structure and in the viewer, as follows:

• Show Unconfigured Variants

• Show Unconfigured By Occurrence Effectivity

• Show Unconfigured Changes

• Show Unconfigured Assigned Occurrences

• Show GCS Connection Points

• Apply Occurrence Type Filters

When product views are captured and restored, these view selections are preserved; otherwise, potentially unbuildable combinations of parts may be displayed when the view is restored. If you choose to update the configuration from the product view when you reopen it, the saved view selections are retrieved; if you choose to use the current configuration, the saved view selections are ignored.

To evaluate the configuration of an existing product view, right-click a product view in the Product View Gallery and choose Show Configuration.

Teamcenter displays a dialog box that shows the assembly configuration when the product view was created. The name of the product view is shown in the title bar of the dialog box. The dialog box also lists any Show Unconfigured menu commands that were active at the time the product view was created.

If you show the configuration for product views created on a composite structure (such as a process), the results are displayed in tabular form with each member structure occupying a line in the table. If any Show Unconfigured ... command was set to Off for all the assemblies contained in the structure, the corresponding column is not displayed. In the following figure, the Show Unconfigured Changes and Show Unconfigured by Occurrence Effectivity commands were turned off when the product view was created and those entries do not appear as columns.
