Copy an Event

If you want to duplicate an event to another date, or if a new event contains the same information as a previously existing event, you do not have to enter all the event information “from scratch.” Instead, you can use the Copy Event function to copy an existing event. 

  1. On the Manage Events page, click an event title.

    The Event Summary page opens.

  2. From the Details tab, click Copy Event

    The Copy Event dialog opens.

  3. Do one of the following:
    • To copy the existing event as is, enter a new start date, and then click Copy. The Event Summary page opens. The newly copied event appears on the All tab. (Depending on the new starting date for the copied event, it might also appear on the Current tab, the Historical tab, or both.)
    • To copy the event to a new event, select Copy to a New Event, enter a new start date, and then click Copy. The Event Summary page opens. The new event is loaded to the Event Summary page with a new event ID. The newly copied event appears on the All tab. (Depending on the new starting date for the copied event, it might also appear on the Current tab, the Historical tab, or both.)
  4. To include canceled events when you are copying, select Include canceled events when copying.
  5. Click Copy

    The Event Summary page displays the newly copied.

  6. Do one of the following:
    • If you accessed the Event Summary page from the Manage Events page, click Back to Manage Events to return to the Manage Events page.
    • If you accessed the Event Summary page from a calendar, click Back to Calendar to return to the event’s calendar.
