CopyDataType

When creating a new Document Definition in a project, you can re-use a correctly specified data type from another project. This will save time and prevent configuration errors. You can use the CopyDataType command to copy custom data types from one Document Definition into another. The command will overwrite any custom data types having the same names as the custom data types that you want to copy.

Note: Upon import, the version of the Document Definition will be updated and the copied data type will become available only within its data type category (e.g. numbers, dates, currency, etc.).
