Reference Leaf Elements

A reference leaf element is used to lifecycle and reuse content.

A reference leaf element has the same lifecycle requirements as a standard leaf element in the assembly. Both require a unique ID and lifecycle management to track modified file information.

Reference leaf element features are as follows:

— A reference leaf element allows multiple leaf elements to point to a single piece of content or another leaf in either a current or submitted assembly.

— A reference leaf must include the application number, prefix, and the sequence number.

— To reference an entity across assemblies, the target leaf must be included in a lifecycle.

— A reference leaf element does not have the Leaf Status attribute.
