Reusing Objects
Use
One of the main advantages of IMG structure maintenance is that you can reuse all elements of an IMG activity. You can include a complete IMG activity in the IMG structure as often as you like, or reuse certain parts of an IMG activity (documentation, attributes and maintenance object). Enter the object ID in the ID field.
