      <Paragraph>The <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/pcf" role="module">Product Configuration</GUIRef> (PCF) module is very flexible and can be used to set up
		very complex structures. However, when the structure becomes more complex,
		system performance gets worse.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>You can use PCF without using PCS projects in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti" role="package">Manufacturing</GUIRef>. The number of
		transactions in PCS decreases, which improves system performance. To set up PCF
		without <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/pcs" role="module">Project Control</GUIRef> (PCS), create items in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/ibd/tcibd0501m000" role="session">Items - General (tcibd0501m000)</GUIRef> session with item type <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/kitm#generic" role="option">Generic</GUIRef>.
		The item policy of the items defined in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/ibd/tcibd2500m000" role="session">Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000)</GUIRef> session must be <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/opol#anonymous" role="option">Anonymous</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
