EndreExact copy of an existing (parent)
ver 5
The user guide, Page 147, states that
.
"You can create a new child scorecard by making an exact copy of an existing (parent)
scorecard and the two will be automatically cascaded."
.
What are the steps to make an exact copy of a scorecard?
Thank you, Endre

Michael PaulHi Endre -
You can do this in a few short steps.
First click the "New..." button under Scorecards on the Author tab.
Select a "Parent Scorecard:" in the drop down that you would like to clone.
Mark the Checkbox of "Cascade Scorecard:". This means you would like to clone the scorecard.
Click "Save" and abracadabra you’ll have the exact copy of the parent scorecard with it cascaded underneath.
Cheers,
Mike

EndreThnx,
I wasn't sure that once I create a cascading child scorecard, it actually inherits elements from the parent. I thought I only set the relationship between the two scoreacards when setting it to cascading.
Now I see the Description of the Cascade Check box on page 149-150: "The new scorecard inherits the schema of the parent scorecard."
