How are user-defined symbols handled during the merge procedure?
User-defined symbols are saved in the configuration database. If the source and target databases are both on the same server, no conflicts are possible.
If the source and target databases are on different database servers, the user-defined symbols are handled as follows:
If a symbol with the same GUID and the same graphic exists in the configuration database of the target database server, the symbol from the target database server will be used.
If a symbol with the same GUID and a different graphic exists in the configuration database of the target database server, the symbol from the target database server will be used.
If no symbol with the same GUID exists in the configuration database of the target database server, the original symbol from ARIS Method will be used.
