Introduction

Usage :  Involved when you use a group of components from the catalog and let you define if you instantiate, duplicate, or replace the objects from a group of components

Note: Routable objects are never replaced. If the rule indicates replace, the routable objects are instantiated

possible value for List_Operations : 

• 1 = Instantiate
• 2 = Duplicate
• 3 = Replace

Datasetup Resource Set : 

• Diagram Resource

Datasetup Resource : Rule to compute options for component group

Rule Example 1 

Description

For each instance of the component group , the rule will do for :

• Equipment : Duplicate
• Piping Part : Duplicate
• others : Instantiate

Rule

// ThisObject --> NULL 
/*
possible value for List_Operations :
1 = Instantiate
2 = Duplicate
3 = Replace
*/
