The Copy and Paste options allow the user to make a duplicate of an employee schedule and then to paste in another cell for the same employee or other employees. The copied schedules will have the same assignment information as the original (activity code, profile, etc.). The user can paste this same schedule into as many cells as needed.

Schedules from a single cell can also be copied using the drag-and-drop method. For more information, see Copying an Employee Schedule Using the Drag-and-Drop Method.

Note: If a schedule is pasted into a cell which already has a schedule, the newly pasted schedule replaces the original schedule, and the original is deleted.
