Copying objects

Within a module you can copy a single object, or an object and its children. You cannot copy across different modules.

Before you begin

Make sure that you have an Edit package. Your current package is displayed in the header of the web client workspace.

About this task

The Options menu is displayed when you click the arrow display edit menu icon in the upper right corner of any attribute in the grid. The arrow is displayed in each attribute in the current row, and when you hover the cursor over any attribute in the grid.

The copy operation applies to the whole object, not just the attribute where you open the Options menu.

Procedure

  1. Open the Options menu from any attribute of the object that you want to copy.
  2. To copy the object, click Start Copy Object. To copy the object and its children, click Start Copy Hierarchy.
  3. Open the Options menu from any attribute of the object where you want to copy the object or objects.
    • To copy the object before the current object, click Copy Before
    • To copy the object one level below the current object, click Copy Below
    • To copy the object after the current object, click Copy After
