Duplicate an existing item

You can duplicate existing items from the global search page or the Item Creation page.

Verify that criteria are met

The following criteria must be met before you can copy an item:

To verify criteria:

1. Navigate to the item you want to duplicate.

2. If both criteria are met, the option to Duplicate is available.
