Copying a scheduling environment

To copy a scheduling environment, from the main Scheduling Environment Selection List panel (as shown in Figure 1) enter a 2 on the Action line next to the name. This will bring you to the Copy a Scheduling Environment panel, as shown in Figure 1.

You must give the new scheduling environment a new, unique name. From this screen, you can modify the new scheduling environment, as shown in Modifying a scheduling environment.

The copy function is useful when you are working with scheduling environments with large numbers of resource names. If you wish to create a new scheduling environment that is similar to an existing one, you can simply copy the original and then make whatever changes are necessary.
