• Duplicating Objects — With the duplicate function, you quickly create a copy of an existing object in i-doit -- including the desired category contents.

• Attribute Validation and Mandatory Fields — If you want to ensure the uniqueness of attributes or expect only defined values when maintaining certain fields, or want to make fields mandatory...
