Settings Inheritance

Note: Not available in BIMcloud Basic.

The BIMcloud allows you to set up generic rules for a group of items by arranging them into a hierarchy and applying the settings at a higher level: that is, items at a lower hierarchical level inherit settings from those at a higher level. Settings for the Root element of the content type will be inherited by all items of that content type.

Note: Not all content types can be organized into a hierarchy. In those cases (e.g. Users, Roles), the only hierarchy is between the Root item and all the others. For these content types, too, settings applied to the Root will be inherited by all child items.

The inherited settings can be overridden at lower levels, if you have the necessary permissions.
