8.2 Copying Data Records
There are two ways to copy a data record.
You can call an existing data record for editing, and save it unchanged
under a new number and, if necessary, under a new name. Then make
your changes.
Save an existing record via data record transfer under a new number and,
if necessary, under a new name. Then make your changes in the copy.
Proceed as follows to obtain a copy of a data record whose values you want
to change later.
1. Call the data record to be copied via the standard screen Records Edit.
2. Instead of changing a value in the data record, exit the displayed data re-
cord again immediately by pressing
ENTER
.
When the standard screen is exited, you will be asked whether you want
to save the data record regardless of whether values have been changed or
not.
3. Position cursor in the field for the data record number, enter the number,
and confirm.
4. Position cursor in the field for the data record name, enter the name, and
confirm.
The next time you call the data record directory, you will find the new data
record in the list.
