Defining Mates Specific to a Configuration

I have an assembly that has two ranges of motion that I want ultimately show in a drawing.  My logic tells me that I can create two different configurations, one showing the minimum range and the other showing the maximum, then define the views per configuration in my drawing.  I guess I have two questions:

1. Is this the most efficient way to create my different views?

2. How do you define a specific configuration to be used when placing a mate?
