To Copy an Event
- Search for the event to copy.
Search for the event you want to copy, then select the event name to open the event details view.
- Choose to Copy Event.
Choose Copy Event from the More Actions menu in the event details view.
You can also copy an event from the What's Next section displayed when you save a new or edited event by using the Copy button.
When you choose to copy an event from the event details tab (with appropriate security permissions), you will see a Copy Related Events dialog box.
You have the option to copy only this event or to copy the event and relate it to other events to create a related events set. If the event you are copying is already in a related events set, you can see its related events in the dialog box and choose to copy any of them or to create a new set. See Creating Event Relationships and Copying Related Events for more information.
- Edit your copied event.
The event request form loads with many fields pre-populated for you from the originating event. In the event editor, go through each tab and field to verify which details you want to retain and which you need to edit for the copy. Be sure to "touch on" every field to be sure you're getting the results you want.
In addition, along with many other event details, the dates/times from the original event are retained in the event copy, so location and resource assignments may be flagged as conflicts with the original or removed.
- Save your copied event.
When you've finished making changes, use the Save button to save the event and open a set of options for continuing.
If the original event was starred as a favorite, the copy is automatically starred too. You can unstar the event in the Event Options ("Remove from Starred?") displayed when you save the copy.
