Libraries

A library is a saved set of choices or values associated with a Sytewise Contracts or Fixtures. When used to create a new Object, the library makes it easier to add a complex set of information with one click. 

Libraries can be created and used in the following contexts.

Creating A Library Item

From any existing contract, fixture or property (to save a group of fixtures) click the +Contract button, give the library item a name and save. Make sure your titles are unique and informative. See this article about naming in Sytewise.

When creating a new item you can choose to create one from scratch or choose to use a library version. Just click the Library Tab when creating a fixture or contract. Choose the library item you wish to use, give it a name and create it.

For Contracts the new contract will inherit all the base settings of your library contract and add any line items from the original. 

For Fixtures the new fixture will have all the same values as the original and every part with their details included.

If the library item was created at the property level it will add every fixture in the library reference plus all the details for parts.

The logs for each will not be generated as these are new instances of their respective objects.
