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#
- 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.
- Optionally, enter a comment for the operation.
- Select Clone to complete the transaction.
