Before you merge a complete configuration, you can generate a Mergeable Item Summary to list all the items in a lower configuration or project that are ready to be merged up to a higher configuration or plant. The summary also shows all terminated and deleted items. For more information on the mergeable item summary, see Mergeable items summary.

On completion of a configuration merge, ensure that you refresh all views of the merged items, so that the current data is displayed in context.
