PH30669: DATA MODULES DOES NOT ALLOW TO (RE-)ADD FOLDERS FROM LINKED DATAMODULE

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• Data Modules does not allow to (re-)add folders from linked data
  module
  
  A data module is used as source of another data module.
  New folders that have been added to source data module cannot be
  dragged over.
  
  The "Show unused items" in "Source view" only highlight them
  when they have content, for example a calculated item.
  
  In case the source data module had already folders when another
  was created using it as a source, then these folders will be
  properly copied.
  But when you by accident remove these existing folders, you
  cannot re-add them.
  
  Only folder content can be dragged over.
  

Local fix

• Manually create the folders using same names in your data module
  and drag in what is required.
