Currently, the Add products from another drawing function creates a copy of the product as it adds it to the drawing, in the same way the 'Add product from database' function does.
This present an issue when I want to copy a product from one drawing to another within the same assessment. It currently creates another line item in the rate build up for that product when I want it to instead populate the quantities using the already existing line item for that product in the assessment.
E.g. In zone 1 I have measures product 'Wall 1' on a drawing. I want to copy this measure to zone 2 due to it being very similar with only a small change required.
When I do this, another line item is added called 'wall 1 (copy)' and is linked to zone 2. I would like the original product 'Wall 1' to be linked to zone 2 as it's copied so I can use the copy function, but it not add multiple instances of the same product to the assessment.
Perhaps a page as part of the copy steps where you confirm which existing products, if any, you want to link the measures being copied to?
