  Key Concepts: 
  Inheritance is a feature of the Commercial Project Management (CPM) component of SAP. It allows users to define a set of characteristics that can be inherited by other objects in the system. This means that any changes made to the original object will be automatically applied to all objects that inherit from it. This helps to reduce the amount of manual work required to keep objects up-to-date.
  
  How to use it: 
  Inheritance can be used in CPM by creating a master object and then assigning it as the parent object for other objects. Any changes made to the master object will then be automatically applied to all objects that inherit from it. This can be done by selecting the “Inherit from” option when creating a new object or editing an existing one.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using inheritance, it is important to remember that any changes made to the master object will be applied to all objects that inherit from it. Therefore, it is important to ensure that any changes made are appropriate for all objects that will inherit them. Additionally, it is important to remember that any changes made to an inherited object will not be applied back to the master object.
