Copying and Pasting a Work Item

You can copy a work item to the Windows Clipboard and paste it into the same process or into a different process. When you paste the work item, IPA Designer adds its name to the Work Items container of the process list.

If you post a copied work item into the same process, IPA Designer adds a number (starting with "1") at the end of the work item name to indicate that it is a copy of the original work item of the same name.

To copy and paste a work item:

1. In the process list, right-click the work item to copy, then click Copy.
   
   IPA Designer copies the work item to the Windows Clipboard.

2. Right-click the process into which you want to paste the work item, then click Paste.
   
   IPA Designer pastes the work item into the process and adds its name to the Work Items container of the process list.

Note: In IC 4.0 Service Update 1 (SU1) and later versions, IPA Designer automatically includes any referenced items (such as variables) when you copy and paste. It also updates the references to the pasted location.
