Import existing user defined options into PDM perspective

We are relatively new to RDi and have a lot of user defined options coded for the green screen version of PDM. RDi does have a PDM perspective but there is no way to bring in the pre-existing options already defined in the green screen PDM. Need to have a way to do that.

    The CAAC has reviewed this IBM Idea and recommends that IBM view this as a high priority Idea that is important to be addressed.

    This will hopefully help users adopt RDi faster if they can import their options into RDi. This will be very helpful for the users who have many PDM options.

    Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual IBM Ideas on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your Idea.

    Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.
