Export Item Properties

It is possible to export the properties of an item. This can then be used as a template when creating new items. The new item will get the same property values as the item for which properties were exported. Select Export properties in the context menu in the item node, which brings up a dialog box asking the user to input a name.

You can then enter an easily recognizable name for the Properties Template.

When adding items, all the saved properties templates for the item type are listed in the "Properties Template" combo box. The templates are stored in files in the program folder of Apis Management Studio under the folder defaults. The templates are grouped by the module type and under the folder Items, then further grouped by item type. The files can be copied to other installations of AMS.
