			<Paragraph>Product features of option sets lower in the configuration structure are automatically inherited from higher levels. This means that the option values for product features in the upper levels of the configuration are automatically exported to the lower levels in the configuration structure. Horizontal dependencies between option values in the configuration structure are achieved with the help of global variables.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>When an <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#100011" role="glossary">option set</Link> is initialized, the option value is initialized from the higher option sets by inheriting. This is performed for each product feature that belongs to the option set. Afterwards, the before-input option constraint section is performed. During this process, the option value is initialized with the default value that you defined in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/cnss#before.input" role="enum">Before Input</GUIRef> constraint. The option set is then read.</Paragraph>
