Processing Sequence for DependenciesV

• Each time you enter a value for a characteristic on the value assignment screen and confirm the value, the system processes all the dependencies.

• The dependencies are processed in the following sequence:

1. All actions several times, until no more values can be inferred.

2. All procedures exactly once in the following sequence:

a) Procedures for the configuration profile in the order you defined

b) Procedures for characteristics

c) Procedures for characteristic values

The procedures for each characteristic or value are processed in the order you defined.

3. Actions

Values set by procedures can also trigger actions. For this reason, all actions are processed again.

4. Preconditions

5. Selection conditions for characteristics

Constraints are processed in parallel with points 1–3, if all the objects in the OBJECTS

section are present, and if all the conditions in the CONDITIONS section are fulfilled
