This element references a piece list contained in an item.
The item passes on its options (OPTIONS) to the sub positions if these have identical features (FEATURES) in the feature class associated with the respective sub-position.
The sub-positions can have rules that determine whether a sub-position is displayed. The sub-position is then specified with the corresponding piece quantity.
Items that are only permitted as sub-positions are marked separately (element PARTS_LIST_EXCLUSIVE).
If the item is a catalogue item (ITEM_IDENTIFICATION 'K'), prices may be assigned to the item.The total price of the catalogue item results from the price assigned to it and the prices of the components from the piece list.
The following applies for the planning proposal (ITEM_IDENTIFICATION '1'):
The individual items in the piece list can accept the default values.
There must not be any sub-positions that are only sub-positions and that cannot be ordered individually.
Only the resulting items are ordered. The composition itself never shows in the order forms.
The positions are eliminated and options passed down in the planning.
The individual positions must then be positioned in the magnet planner in their order from left-to-right.
Planning suggestions may contain preferred combinations.
The following rules apply to preferred combinations (ITEM_IDENTIFICATION '2'):
It must not contain a planning suggestion.
If a preferred combination is eliminated (e.g. by deleting a sub-position), the individual prices are newly determined for the individual positions, and the price advantage no longer applies.
The pricing then takes place exclusively on main position level.
