Documentation

Definition

Specifies the name of the position during a comparison of nodes, from which the system should start to compare the names.

Dependencies

Only valid if the objects to be compared are nodes, and if either the structure view or levels view has been selected as the type of display for the comparison.

Example

You wish to compare the engines of 2 cars with each other in the product structures. The nodes for the engines are called:

  • WX500_MOTOR202
  • YZ200_MOTOR303

You can define with the data "offset from: / to:" , that the system should only compare the names of the nodes from the 6th to the 11th position.
