Ignore Inherited Adds?

Typically, when you modify elements in a parent structure, the changes are also applied to its child structure. However, if you have already made changes to a child structure, you might not want changes in the parent to affect it. For example, if you modify a child structure and remove codes that are not in use, you won't want the list of codes to be updated if you migrate the parent structure to a new version of a standard. To prevent these updates from happening to the child structure, check the Ignore Inherited Adds check box. This will automatically be checked if you delete elements with the type of Value in a child structure.

If the Ignore Inherited Adds check box is selected (on), elements added to the parent structure will also not be added to this element.
