Copying a style

  1. Select Basics > Styles.
  2. Right-click a style that you want to make a copy of and select Copy / Variant.
    Alternatively, you can also click the Copy/Variant (Alt+C) icon.

    Depending on your permissions, you may see one or both of the options. If you cannot see the option that you require, contact your administrator or see the Infor PLM for Fashion Administration Guide.

  3. From the create options, select Copy.
  4. Under the Information to Copy section, specify this information:

    This field shows the reference data where the new record is based from.
    Load Template

    Select an applicable saved template from the drop-down list. The saved details from the template is applied to the style variant.

    See Managing templates.

  5. To set or assign specific details for each infocluster, go to Details column and click their corresponding Select icon.
  6. Under the Set Values section, specify this information:
    Number
    Specify a style number.

    If the ID generator is set up for the Style module and you do not specify a number, the ID generator automatically generates the number based on the next number in the series.

    If the ID generator is not set up, you must specify a number. The application validates this field when you click OK.

    Name
    Specify the name of the copied style.

    By default, the name of the copy is the name of the style prefixed with the phrase "Copy of-".

    Note: Translations are not copied when there are changes on the Name field. Additionally, the prefix "Copy of or Variant" of is not added to existing translations that are copied.
  7. Select information clusters whose contents will be copied for this copy.
    By default, all information clusters are selected. You can clear items that you do not require.

    Click the Select/Unselect All Clusters icon to unselect all clusters, and select what clusters you want to copy. Click the same icon to select all clusters.

    You can only copy an information cluster if your role has the Copy permission for that cluster.

    Note: If enabled in the settings, inactive colors are not copied.

    Contact your administrator or see the Infor PLM for Fashion Administration Guide.

  8. Click the Execute icon.
    After the task is finished, the copied style appears in a new tab.
    Note: When you copy a style, it takes time before other users can access it (if they have access rights to the style). You can immediately use or view the styles that you have copied.
