This option is useful if you want to run different scenarios, such as a best or worst case budget. You , as you can publish your cloned new budget workbook as a new stream.
Points to note about a cloned workbook:
The budget owner and administrators remain the same in the cloned workbook and they can see the cloned workbook in their menu straight away.
For example, if Bill Branchmanager has a task assigned to him in the original workbook, it will also be assigned to him in the clone but he will not be able to access the workbook until he is reassigned to that task in the clone
The new workbook has the same contents as the original budget workbook, such as the structure, formulas, tabs and so on. The budget owner, administrators and workflow also remain the same.
Click the New button, click Make a copy, then enter a name for the new workbook and click Clone.
