About this task
When you create a structure by inheritance, the child structure is automatically updated
when the parent structure is modified. Edits on the child structure have no impact on
the parent structure.

Hierarchical Mapper node and right-click
Structures.
Click New > Structure.
In the wizard that opens, select Create a structure that is a customization by inheriting from another
structure and click Next.
Select the existing structure to use as a base for your new
structure.
Example
Select a folder and enter a name for your structure, then click
Next.
If you want to add a sample document, select the relevant option, otherwise
leave the default option and click Finish.
Your structure is now created, you can start editing
it.
Customize your structure as needed.
Right-click an element and click New Element to create a new child
element.
Right-click an element and click Delete to remove it from the
structure.
