item to select it. Then click the
Duplicate button to make
a new end item for an end product that has already been assigned one or more
end items. The relationship to the end product is copied automatically.
Enter a unique code for the end item.
Click
OK.

this end item is related; if you choose to do so and you do not enter an
existing product, you are prompted to create a new one. The description of the
product you have chosen appears.
