You can clone an assortment. It helps you build and adapt a new assortment from an existing one. The clone command also duplicates sub assortments, consumer decision trees, merchandising rules, gondolas, scenes, and stores associated with this assortment.
Required access roles: Author, Leader
The products are not duplicated but the product list of the cloned assortment remains the same. The original assortment and the cloned one both contain the same product list. Once cloned, the two assortments evolve independently. You can then modify the product list by adding and removing products, change the sub assortments, consumer decision tree, and adapt a gondola for the cloned assortment.
