Description

This session provides methods to re-assign StepConstrainer to Office mappings. a StepConstrainer may appear in multiple Office objects and removing the last reference to a StepConstrainer is the equivalent of deleting it. Each Office may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a StepConstrainer to another Office is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id).
