Overview
This time-saving feature allows you to inherit codes from another codelist rather than having to recreate codes that are already in the Registry.
To do this:
Step 1 - Select an existing codelist
You can do this from either a new or an existing codelist. In step 1 of the wizard on the right-hand side of the page, you will see the Inheritance buttons.
If the Add button is clicked, a list of codelists will be displayed and you can select one or more to be used.
Having selected a Codelist, you will see the selection reflected in Step 1 of the Wizard.
Step 2 - Adding new codes
This can be done in the usual way either via Step 2 of the Wizard (CSV import) or via Step 3 (Manual Editing). It is important to note that in the codelist which is inheriting codes from another codelist only codes added will be displayed in the Wizard as shown in the example below (Step 4 of the Wizard).
Viewing the whole codelist
From the Codelist page, if you select View you will be able to see all codes, both inherited and manually added.
