Copying a class structure

Clone classes, database table rules, and class groups to use one application for multiple work types. The Clone Class Group tab creates a set of classes (one of which corresponds to a class group) that match the classes below a specified class. The new and original class groups share the same native database table.

Follow these steps to clone a class group.

1. Select Configure > Data Model > Classes and Properties > Clone Class Group to start the Direct Inheritance wizard.
2. Complete the first form with the following information:
   • The ruleset that contains the classes to be replicated
   • The class group (work pool) to be replicated
   • A new name for the class group to be created
   • Choose any value for the strategic process; this field is not used.
3. Click Next.
4. Complete the second form:
   • The ruleset to contain the new classes
   • Checks for each class to be replicated
5. Click Next to start replication.

Result:  The final form identifies the classes, database table rule, and class group that were created.
