Privet Igor, this simply creates an "internal reference" to that node which you 
can reuse in upcoming parts of the same archetype. Of course the at code at the 
very end is referring to the same term_id. But the paths are difference 
depending on where it is referenced. Look at the 'internal reference' section 
or search for "use_node" within the ADL spec. I use it heavily where there are 
multiple appearances of a certain data node with exactly same semantics (i.e. 
anatomical sites) that needs qualify lots of "findings" which require further 
qualification of anatomical sites. When you create this reference using 
Archetype Editor you can drag and drop into onto any other part of the model. 
In the end when an operational template is generated there is no longer any 
difference between the 'referenced' and the 'referencing' nodes; i.e. they all 
become the same description of the same data item.

Hope this helps...You can look into the archetype: 
openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.MST_colon.v1
Which used to come bundled with the AE installation.

Cheers,

Subject: What does "Add reference" in Archetype Editor means

Hi!

When right-clicking on any element in Archetype Editor there is link "Add 
reference" which adds a readonly element to definition.

So, what does it mean?
