Copying a Change Object Using Drag and Drop
Use
You can copy objects from the product structure to a master record or any other structure by using the drag and drop function.
Prerequisites
You have selected the New Version in your settings for the product structure.
Procedure
When you process the change master record, you can copy the change objects from the product structure to the change master record if you have set the Object type active for change number indicator (for example, documents).
Please note that the product structure is exploded automatically according to the
Filter that you have activated for the product structure.You see the Select Objects initial screen.
The Select Objects screen is divided into two:
– First section: structure of the change number
This part of the screen lists all the object types that the Object type active for change number indicator is set for (for example, documents). The objects are copied to this part of the screen.
– Second section : product structure of an initial objet
This part shows the product structure for the initial object. You can use the drag and drop function to copy all the objects that are displayed with the Move icon to the change master record. You copy the objects by placing the cursor on the object you want to copy, pressing the left mouse button, and dragging the object to the first part of the screen.
Objects that have already been allocated to the change master record are shown by the check mark icon.
If you decide that you do not want your selected object to be copied after all, you can copy it back to the product structure by using the drag and drop function. The system then changes the icon from Selected to Move again.
Result
The system copies your selected objects to the change master record.
