# Duplicating a System

## The Duplicate feature allows you to instantly copy an existing System, Policy, or Training, making it easy to create new variations of processes that share similar steps.

 

### **🔍 Step 1: Identify the Source System**

The Duplicate feature is best used when you have processes that share 80–90% of the same steps, such as "Invoicing a New Client" vs. "Invoicing an Existing Client".

1. Locate the existing system, policy, or training you wish to copy in the left-hand sidebar.

---

### **⚡ Step 2: Execute the Duplicate Command**

You can initiate a copy without having to open the system first:

1. Right-click on the title of the system you want to copy.
2. Select **Duplicate** from the menu options.

---

### **📂 Step 3: Select the Destination**

A window will appear asking where the new copy should be placed:

1. Navigate through your folder structure to find the target location.
2. Click on the specific folder where the copy should live, such as "Marketing \> Social Media".
3. Click the **Duplicate** button to confirm.

---

### **🛠️ Step 4: Customize the New Copy**

systemHUB will create an exact replica of the original content in your chosen folder.

1. **Locate the copy:** It will appear in the folder you selected.
2. **Edit:** Open the new system and enter **Edit Mode**.
3. **Modify:** Rename the title immediately to avoid confusion with the original, then add or remove the specific steps required for this version of the process.
4. **Publish:** Click **Publish** to save your new, unique system.

### **🎉 You're All Set!**

You have successfully duplicated your system. This workflow makes scaling your documentation library incredibly fast and consistent!
