Good morning!!
Thank you so much!!
Well in our case... was a retention related question.... I would like to
know if I could recycle the differential001 and 002 in order to restore
to differential003 situation.
Basically to know if I could recycle those intermediate differentials...
I see by your answer that we could then :)
Thank you so much for the clarification.
Cheers!
