Create Module Structure
Procedure
- Click on the Modules link in the Module customizer work area.
- The eponymous module will be opened in which a new module can be created and the parameters of the module can be defined.
- Enter a title for the new module in the Module field and save. A new ID number for the new module will be allocated automatically.
You have now defined the structure and the header data of a new module. In the next topic you will learn how to create data areas for the new module and how to fill them with data fields.
Create Modules by Copying
- Alternatively, a module can also be created by copying a module that already exists. As a result, you generate a 1:1 copy of the source module.
- Enter the ID number of the module you want to copy in the the Copy from data field in the Modules module (e.g. 0099JB for the Project Core Data module).
- After you have pressed ENTER, a new module number is generated in the MOD data field.
- Enter a new title in the Module data field.
- Save. When you save, all the parameters of the source module as well as its subobjects (submodules, data areas, module variants) are copied to the new module.
