What is inheritance in SAP IS-HMED - Clinical System?

SAP Term: inheritance

• Component: IS-HMED

• Component Name: Clinical System

• Description: Describes how assigned drugs from different drug master data share information. The information of the inheritance fields is copied downwards from the drugs of the highest level of the drug hierarchy. If a value is inherited, it overwrites the value of the drug at a lower level. Some attributes are always inherited, others never, and for certain attributes, the inheritance of the values depends on user confirmation.

• Key Concepts: 
  Inheritance is a feature of the IS-HMED Clinical System that allows users to create a new object based on an existing object. This means that the new object will have the same properties and values as the original object, but can be modified to fit the user’s needs. This feature is useful for quickly creating objects that are similar to existing ones, without having to manually enter all of the data.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use inheritance in the IS-HMED Clinical System, first select the object you want to create a new one from. Then, click on the “Inherit” button in the toolbar. This will open a window where you can enter the name of the new object and any additional information you want to include. Once you have entered all of the necessary information, click “OK” and your new object will be created with all of the same properties and values as the original object.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using inheritance in the IS-HMED Clinical System, it is important to remember that any changes you make to the original object will also be applied to any objects created from it. Therefore, it is best to make sure that all of your changes are correct before creating any new objects. Additionally, if you need to make changes to multiple objects at once, it may be more efficient to use inheritance rather than manually entering each change individually.
