Settings Inheritance

The BIMcloud allows you to set up generic rules for a group of items by arranging them into a hierarchy and applying the settings at a higher level: items at a lower hierarchical level inherit settings from those at a higher level.

For example, settings on the Project Root are inherited by all Teamwork Projects by default.

The inherited settings can be overridden at lower levels, if you have the necessary permissions.

Note: Not all content types can be organized into a hierarchy. In those cases (e.g. Users, Roles), the only hierarchy is between the Root item and all the others. For these content types, too, settings applied to the Root will be inherited by all child items.
