    Copy report

    A copy of the original report is created with the default name of Copy of [Name of the original report]. For example, the report “Q4 Completed Tasks” would have “Copy of Q4 Completed Tasks” as the name.

  5. (Optional) To rename the report, start typing a new name.

    If you deselect the title before typing the new name, select the report title, delete the name, then enter the new name.

    note note
    NOTE
    The sharing information does not transfer to the copied report from the original version.
    For information on how to see who the previous report was shared with, see Create a report on reporting activities.

  7. (Optional) If you have Manage permissions to the original report and the original report is no longer needed, you can delete it to remove unnecessary duplicated reports in Workfront.
