Unknown Target Parent Option for Subscriptions Between Hierarchy Viewpoints

An Unknown Target Parent parameter is available for subscriptions from one hierarchy viewpoint to another that is used to prevent source parent information from being propagated and instead forces the calculation of the parent for changes synchronized to the target viewpoint.  This option is useful for scenarios where the source and target hierarchy structures are different but they contain the same nodes.  The Unknown Target Parent option can be used for hierarchy viewpoints with the same node type or where node type conversion is necessary.  This subscription option overrides any parent transformations that are configured in node type converters that are applicable to the hierarchy viewpoints.

Business Benefit: Common nodes can be synchronized between alternate hierarchies that have different parents and structure by allowing the target parent for a node to be calculated rather than copying its parent from the source.
