BO4 - Best practice for using an existing connection fro new universe - Information Design Tool

Hi,

Using bo4 sp08 and creating a new universe in a local project and want to use an existing connection which exist in our respoistory.

We have created a new local folder and new business layer and new data foundation layer.

We have copied the connection.cns from another local project to this new local porjcet folder.

Is this the best way to make use of an existing connection for a new universe or is there a better way to do it?

Thanks
