I noticed this Mutually Exclusive field when defining Kits and in its field help, it mentions This indicates only one item from this component group can be selected.
How do I define the component group? For example, instead of G-40010 Golf Club Bag in the attached example I might want to have options of:
G-40010G Golf Club Bag Green
G-40010B Golf Club Bag Black
G-40010R Golf Club Bag Red
And I want the user to select only 1 of these options and not multiple. Could I do that using this Mutually Exclusive field?
Great question! The component group would be defined as a component of the main kit with its own Kit Bill of Materials.
In your example, you would put G-40010 Golf Club Bag on your G-10001 kit.
Then, you would create another Kit Bill of Materials specifically for G-40010. You would have 3 components in that kit: G-40010G Golf Club Bag Green, G-40010B Golf Club Bag Black and G-40010R Golf Club Bag Red. Make sure the mutually exclusive flag is marked as true on all 3 of the components to ensure that only one option is allowed to be selected at a time.
What this does is creates a nested tree structure on the kit selection. Take G-20001 in the screenshot below as an example.
