    8. Select one of the following Duplicate Parameter List options if a parameter list with the same name already exists in Infor Risk & Compliance.
      • Create Copy : Select this option if you wish to create a copy of the parameter list in Infor Risk & Compliance. The parameter list is displayed on the Parameter Lists home page with 'Copy-1' appended to it.
      • Keep Existing: Select this option if you want to retain the parameter list which is already existing in the application. The selected parameter list will not be imported but all additional parameters within that parameter list, if any, will be imported. For example, an existing parameter list in the application is PL1 with parameter P1. You now want to import another parameter list PL1 with parameters P1 and P2 by selecting the option Keep Existing. In this case, the existing PL1 and P1 will be retained as it is but P2 will get imported.
        Note: The Keep Existing option applies to parameters and the parameter lists.
