Copy Person

After a person is defined, you can clone the definition with the Copy Person command. This command lets you duplicate person definitions with the option to change the value of clause arguments.

This page discusses:

Syntax

copy person SRC_NAME DST_NAME [MOD_ITEM {MOD_ITEM}];
  • SRC_NAME is the name of the person definition (source) to be copied.
  • DST_NAME is the name of the new definition (destination).
  • MOD_ITEMs are modifications that you can make to the new definition. For more information, see Modify Person.

History Clause

The history keyword adds a history record marked “custom” to the person that is being copied. The STRING argument is a free-text string that allows you to enter some information describing the nature of the copy operation. For more information, see Adding History to Administrative Objects.
