The Department Copy frame can be used to create a new department by copying an existing one. This can be useful if you are creating multiple departments at one time and also have a specific template you want to use for each one.
To copy an existing department, type the number into the Number field of the Existing Department Information section or double click in the field to select one from the list of values (LOV). The description will automatically populate.
Next, enter the new Department Number in the New Department section. After entering the new code, click the Save button.
Upon saving you will be redirected to the Department Main frame where you can make any necessary changes to the new Department Number.
