Copying a Concept

To copy a concept to use as a basis for creating a new concept, navigate to the Concept Overview component and follow these steps:

1. Locate the concept you want to copy.

2. Select Copy from the Actions menu on the concept's row.
   
   The system takes you to the Copy Concept component. All fields contain values copied from the source concept. The Copied Concept Name field displays the ID for the source concept.

3. Enter a unique ID for the new concept in the Concept ID field.

4. Click the Copy button.
   
   The system validates the new Concept ID and takes you to the Concept Summary with the new Concept ID displayed. Other fields for the new concept contain values copied from the source concept.
   
   If you copy a read-only concept that was already transitioned to a project, the system does not copy the Transition to Project and the Transition to Project Date values to the new concept.
