Default Values
In the Application Segment, you can add default values to all applications within a product at the same time. Overwriting the default values for specific applications is also possible. Position
The Position provides information about the mounting location of a part in the vehicle.
Example:
- Wheel: Front
- Parking Brake Cable: Rear
Position information belongs in the Application segment. It is often incorrectly included in the Attribute or Description segments.
Qualifiers & Notes
A qualifier has an ID in the background and therefore is a standardized data point. Some qualifiers stand for themselves, and some require a value.
E.g. "with A/C" vs. "with name A/C Compressor" where the name of the A/C compressor has to be added for more clarification.
Notes can be added and set up to display on every application as default.
Default qualifiers defined for child products will be added to those inherited from the parent product, not overwritten like with MFR Label or Position.
