Copy Masterdata to another Masterdata
You can copy a Masterdata when you want the same Masterdata to appear in multiple locations. Each instance of the Masterdata refers to the same, original Masterdata.
When you copy a Masterdata to another Masterdata, Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager automatically
• copies the item,
• assigns position numbers according to your current position number settings, and
• applies default values to other link attributes.
Unlike Duplicate Masterdata, you're not creating a new Masterdata object, you're simply creating a link between one Masterdata and another.
To copy Masterdata,
1. In your Workspace or in the BOM Editor, select a Masterdata you want to copy into another Masterdata. Use Ctrl to select multiple items.
2. To copy the Masterdata, you can
◦ Copy/Cut and paste
◦ Drag and drop (single select only)
◦ In the BOM Editor, use Add Existing Masterdata.
If you want to copy Masterdata with its source link attributes, see
