Reusing attribute definitions

You can import attribute definitions into your current module from any module in the database that you have read access to. If you import an attribute definition that uses a custom attribute type, the attribute type is also imported.

Before you begin

You must have modify access to the module, and the module must be open in exclusive edit mode.

Procedure

  1. To import attribute definitions, click Edit > Attributes.
  2. Click Import. The Attribute Import wizard is displayed.
  3. Step through the wizard.
