Variant
A variant refers to a
Revision
that has been modified after adding it to a
Door Job
. Modified
Vari-
ants
are only created by editing a
Revision
inside of a
Door Job
, and can never be directly added
to a
Door Job
.
Variants
track the use of a
Revision
while still allowing a change to the
Revision
to suit the pur-
poses of the
Door Job.
For example, there may be a
Feature Group
that represents cuts for a particular lock, but the loca-
tion of the lock varies between
Door Jobs.
By adding the lock
Feature Group
to the
Door Job
, then
changing its location, and saving the
Door Job
a modified
Variant
will be created.
When looking at the associated
Door Jobs
of that lock
Revision
all of the
Door Jobs
will be listed,
even if the location varies between the jobs.
Figure 2- 8 Shows an example of a Door Lite Cutout
Feature Group
with a variant that is associ-
ated with a
Test Door Job.
