Definition

Set this indicator to define a class as a local class.

This indicator is useful if you use distributed systems, but want to maintain one portion of your object classifications in a central system and another portion in a local system

If this indicator is set, object allocations for this class are not deleted when you distribute data. Values assigned to characteristics of this class are not deleted either. This ensures that the classifications you create locally are not deleted whenever you distribute data from your central classification system.

Characteristics that occur in both a local and a central class are changed, but distribution cannot delete a characteristic value.
