You can copy a condition component from a rule or template and paste it into the same, or a different, rule or template. You cannot copy a condition component and paste it into another condition component or another component type.
To copy and paste a condition component from the Rule Designer or Template Designer:
In the System View, expand the Financial Management, Planning, or Essbase application type, the application, and the calculation type (for Financial Management), the plan type (for Planning), or the database (for Essbase). Then do one of these tasks, depending on whether the condition is a component of a rule or template:
If the condition is in a rule, expand Rules, right-click the rule you want to open, and select Open.
If the condition is in a template, expand Templates, right-click the template you want to open, and select Open.
In the Rule Designer or Template Designer flow chart, right-click the condition component you want to copy, and select Copy.
Note:
You can also copy a component by selecting Edit, Copy.
If you want to paste the condition component into the same business rule or template, right-click the location in the flow chart where you want to paste the condition component, and select Paste.
If you want to paste the condition component into a different business rule or template, open the business rule or template into which you want to paste the component, right-click the location in the flow chart where you want to paste the condition component, and select Paste.
