Adding a Vehicle Model to a Pro Product Plan

You can add (create) a vehicle model in a pro product plan to define a representation of a major vehicle variation. Each vehicle model defines an allowable combination of all the options and also limits the options that are applicable to each major vehicle variation.

Procedure

From the Product Planner Dialog Box, either:Choose Tools > Vehicle Creator Tool from the menu.

Click the Launch Vehicle Creator Tool () button.

The Vehicle Creator Dialog Box displays.

Click the Edit button at the bottom of the dialog box, the dialog box is placed in an editing mode.
Choose Vehicle Model > Create from the menu; an Input dialog box displays.
Specify the name of the vehicle model and click OK; the Select Standard Options Dialog Box displays.
Select the default options that are included in the vehicle model, and click OK.Note A default option is present on the base vehicle. However, you can remove or replace it based on the packages. For example, a Low-line radio option may be default. The package for High-line radio may consist of the High-line radio option, plus a deletion of the Low-line radio. That way, when a customer orders a High-line radio, the package removes the default Low-line radio and replaces it with the High-line radio.
In the Vehicle Creator dialog box, the vehicle model displays on the Options tab (with the selected options set as Default) and on the Packages tab.Note You can also set an option as Optional in a vehicle model on the Options tab.
Click Save&Close; the vehicle model is added to the Vehicle Configuration Manager Tree on the Product Planner dialog box.
