How to Mirror Product

I have a cabinet that I need both left and right hand versions of.  I have drawn one version and now I am looking to mirror it.  Looking through past forum posts, there is not much information on this.  About all I can see is that each part needs a mirrored value in the appropriate column in Edit Design Data.  For example, a Left Finished End would have a mirrored value of "=Right Finished End".  Makes sense to me, so far so good.

That seems to be the end of the information out there.  How do I go about mirroring a product using the mirror product command in Microvellum?  What parts need values in the mirrored value column, what should this value be, etc.  I do not see any place to put values for part placement (x,y,z) values.  Are these not needed?  Looking for some guidance here.

Below is a picture of the cabinet I am trying to mirror.  Currently when I mirror it, it shows the cabinet exactly the same.  The drawers need to be on the left side, the coat rod on the right side.
