• Key Concepts: 
  Inherited-from access control context is a feature of the SAP PLM Web Applications (PLM-WUI-APP) component. It allows users to inherit access control settings from a parent object, such as a product or document, when creating a new object. This ensures that the new object has the same access control settings as its parent, making it easier to manage access control settings across multiple objects. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use the inherited-from access control context feature, users must first create a parent object with the desired access control settings. Then, when creating a new object, users can select the “inherit from” option and select the parent object from which they want to inherit the access control settings. This will ensure that the new object has the same access control settings as its parent. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the inherited-from access control context feature, it is important to remember that any changes made to the parent object’s access control settings will also be applied to any objects that have inherited those settings. Therefore, it is important to be mindful of any changes made to the parent object’s access control settings in order to avoid unexpected changes to other objects.
