Creating a Simulation Activity from an Existing Activity

Instead of creating a new simulation activity, you will find it easier in some cases to create an activity from an existing activity and change it to suit your needs. When you create a simulation activity from an existing activity, all of the children of the activity, such as its data categories, are also copied; however, referenced documents continue to refer to their original documents.
