In Software Manager, you can perform operations on .MSI or .WSI packages that add,
remove, or replace merge modules. You can use these operations to replace an older
version of a merge module with an updated version or to remove or replace merge
modules that are causing conflicts.
Keep the following in mind concerning these operations:
The merge modules and the .MSI or .WSI packages must be in the Software
Manager database.
You can perform these operations on multiple packages at the same time.
You can add or remove multiple merge modules at the same time, but you can only
replace one merge module at a time.
If you are working on a client computer, you can have these operations performed
on the Wise Package Studio server to reduce the workload of your computer and to
improve the performance of the operation.
