# Duplicate Calendars

If you are creating multiple calendars that share particular properties, you can duplicate your calendar.

Note: When duplicating a calendar, only exclusions from the current date and beyond are copied. Exclusions that have expired are not copied.

Procedure
1. In the left collapsible pane of the Calendar capability, click Calendar list.
2. In the list of calendars that displays, click the calendar you want to duplicate.
3. Click on the calendar name.

4. Click Duplicate from the dropdown.

5. Complete the Duplicate Calendar dialog as follows:
   Note: You must complete all the fields in the dialog box to create a new duplicate calendar.
   Name: The name of the new base calendar. This is a mandatory field. By default, the original calendar name is displayed.
   Category: A category name for the new duplicate calendar. This is a mandatory field.
   Minimum hours: This should be set to the minimum hours that constitute a working day in your organization. This is because, when calculating a deadline, a start date-time and duration must be given. If the duration does not include hours, minutes, or seconds, then the duration is assumed to be 'working days'. For example; the duration "P3D" is assumed to be 3 Working Days and not 72 hours. If the duration is "PT72H" then it is taken to be 72 hours, not 3 Working Days.

   When calculating a deadline using units of 'Working Days', if the number of available hours in the day being considered is less than this defined minimum value, that day is not included. The calculation moves on to the next available day, where again the number of available hours is compared.

   If the duration is specified in months, then the start date is used to determine how many days are in the months.

   Timezone: the timezone for this calendar, for example, GMT. Once you have selected a time zone, the box below is automatically populated with the time zone IDs for that time zone.
6. In the Category: box, enter a category name for your new calendar.
7. Click Add to create the new duplicate calendar or Cancel to cancel the action.
8. Update working days, times, and exclusions, as required.
