Hierarchies are not maintained with a bulk reuse; they are copied as a single list.
:::

When artifacts are reused, a reuse relationship is established between the source artifact and the newly created, reused artifact. The relationship can be viewed in the Relationship tab of the Utility Panel and identified with a reuse icon in both the artifact title and Indicators column in the Descendants View.

Artifacts with reuse relationships that have suspect traces can be merged or quickly reconciled.
