PPM All Outputs Graphic When System Editing is enabled for a plant, changed property values are automatically spread or propagated to related items according to the currently defined consistency criteria. In certain cases, you might want to set a property value on one item only and not allow it to be propagated to any related items. The System Editing command (on the Tools menu and the toolbar) allows you to turn off the propagation functionality temporarily during a design session. After the change has been made, you can use this same command to turn it back on again. System Editing is always turned on when you start a new design session.

System Editing can be enabled or disabled for the entire plant by means of the Enable System Editing setting that is exposed through Options Manager. For new plants, the value of this setting is True by default. For upgraded plants, the value of this setting is False. This allows you to enable System Editing for an upgraded plant at the time of your choosing.
