You can create a duplicate of an item which has the same property values as the original item, but which is a completely separate repository item. To do this:

If you duplicate a category, it appears as a child category of the original category. Products appear at the same level in the hierarchy as the original item.

The new item has the same property values as the original, including the name. Although the two items have identical properties, they are distinct repository items that are stored separately in the database. To minimize confusion, immediately rename the new item.
