Duplicating Objects#

With the duplicate function, you quickly create a copy of an existing object in i-doit -- including the desired category contents.

How to Duplicate an Object#

  1. Check the checkbox of the desired object in the object list.
  2. Click the Duplicate button. A dialog window opens.
  3. Assign a new name for the object.
  4. Select via Update whether the creation and modification date should be taken from the original or the current date should be used.
  5. Define which contents should be transferred: the specific category (if available) as well as the categories linked to the object type.
  6. Optionally, you can (de)virtualize the duplicate and check the Open newly created object checkbox.
  7. Click Duplicate to execute the operation.

After completion, a duplicate of the selected object including the desired contents is available.

Note

It is only possible to duplicate one object at a time. If you want to duplicate multiple objects, repeat the process for each object individually.
