Hi,

I am using the Consolidate method with merge attribute option and the merge is working well for some attributes (e.g. description / definition), but does not work for others (Identifier). In this case, if the primary object Identifer attribute is empty the resulting ObjDef is empty even if one of the secondary ObjDefs identifer attribute is populated.

Is there limitation to the Consolidate method in regards to what attributes can be merged or not?.

Thanks

It depends: If your consolidation led to two objects having the same identifier this could not be done. ARIS enforces the identifier attribute to be unique in the database.
