To Copy a Record's Contents to a New Record

In MYOB Acumatica, you can create a record (a document, transaction, class, or profile) by coping and pasting the contents of a record of the same type, as described in this topic. These capabilities are available on any data entry or maintenance for that is used for record creation. For more information about the creation of records, see Record Entry: General Information and Copy-and-Paste Options and Record Templates.

Tip: If a record contains more than 1,000 detail lines, only the first 1,000 detail lines are copied to a new record.
