• Key Concepts: 
  Conflict in the context of CA-CAD CAD Integration is a situation where two or more objects have the same name, but different properties. This can occur when objects are imported from different CAD systems, or when objects are created in the same CAD system but with different properties. 
  
  How to use it: 
  When conflicts occur, users must decide which object should be kept and which should be discarded. This decision should be based on the importance of the object and its properties. If both objects are important, users can rename one of them to avoid the conflict. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to check for conflicts before importing objects into a CAD system. This can be done by comparing the names and properties of objects in the source and target systems. If conflicts are found, they should be resolved before importing the objects.

It is also important to check for conflicts before merging two CAD systems to ensure that all objects are properly merged.
