Copy Down Code Assignments to Child Resources

Use this procedure to copy the code assignments attached to a parent resource to its child resources.

To copy down code assignments to child resources:

  1. Display the Resource view of the resource file that you want to update.
  2. In the Resource view, click a parent resource and take one of the following actions:
    • In the Codes group on the Edit tab, click Copy Down Codes.
    • Right-click the Resources grid and select Copy Down Codes.
    The Copy Down Codes dialog box displays all available code fields for the selected resource. These fields are shown in the Prompt column.
  3. Select the check boxes for the code fields that you want to copy to the child resources. If you want to copy codes only to those child resources that do not have code assignments, select the Only replace blank code assignments on child codes option. If you do not select this option, Cobra overwrites all existing code assignments for the child resources.
  4. Click OK. Cobra assigns the codes associated with the code fields you selected to the child resources.
  5. Click on the Quick Access Toolbar to save the new code assignments.
