Common Elements in the Configuration Desktop
The graphical configuration applications launched from the Configuration Desktop include a common feature set. These
features include bulk configuration and validation. The bulk configuration features provide “templating without templates.”
These features include the capability to take an existing configured object and utilize user selected attributes as a template for
configuring one or more additional objects. Other common features include:
• Cloning the selected attributes of a record to create new records containing the attributes of the original record. In addition,
you can apply an algorithm that generates values of selected key fields.
• Copying and pasting one or more selected attributes from one record to one or more records.
• Editing a single attribute across multiple rows in a table with a single operation.
