Create object occurrences
Of course, the Distribution organizational unit is also responsible for the Handover to Product Management step. To structure your model clearly, create an occurrence of the Distribution object beside the function Handover to Product Management. Object occurrences are copies of object symbols that represent the same object in one or more models.
