Clone Workgroup#

🔒 Workgroup.Clone

Overview#

This operation is used to clone an existing Workgroup into a new Workgroup with a different name and identical characteristics.

Setup#

No specific setup is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

Preconditions#

  • The Workgroup exists in the system.
  • The Workgroup must have the property Is Main set to true.

Sequence of Steps#

The Clone Workgroup wizard can be called from the Workgroup page within the Business Data Group. The default values will be taken from the current Workgroup to be used as a base for the new object.

Step 1: General Data#

  1. On the left side panel, add as many rows as desired (each row represents a new Workgroup to be created based on the currently selected Workgroup) by selecting and specifying the property values for each new instance to be created. You can also provide a name for each of the new instances, however, if a Name Generator is configured for the Entity Type, you can leave the field blank and a new name will be automatically generated.
  2. Optionally, enter a comment for the operation.
  3. Select Clone to complete the transaction.
