This activity is used to copy either the functional structure, locational structure or both types of structures, from an existing object to a new object. The object ID proposed for the new object structure will be based on the ID Model and the required ID levels set in the class configuration of the source object class. If the copying process is time consuming, it is also possible to select to run it as a background job.
The required functional or locational object structure should exist on a design object. You should also set the ID level inheritance of classes properly, to make the copying smart.
Note: Most design objects have a complicated relation structure. An object is related as a child or as a parent to another object, and objects usually have multiple relations. When copying and deleting, the entire object relation structure needs to be considered. Review the relation structure and plan how you will handle the relations before proceeding.
The functional or locational object structure is copied to a target design object. In any case an internally generated number is added automatically with an * as a suffix in order to avoid duplicating design object IDs.
