Edit the tab setup

What you can change in a tab setup depends on the type of tab and what the stage in of the budgeting process you are in. For example, in the case of a Database Driver tab, you can make changes to the tab’s setup details BEFORE you edit the data (enter or change a value) in the worksheet. After you edit the data, you can only change the driver tab’s name, owner, and administrators.Right

1. Either click the Tab menu in the top-left corner or right-click the tab name

1. at the bottom of the workbook, then select Edit tab setup.

2. Make your changes, then click Update and Finish.

Clone a tab

As some types of tabs often have complex setups, when you need more of them, it is more efficient to clone them rather than adding new ones from scratch. For example, you might want to have two Database driver tabs based on the same database but with a different filter applied to each one. You can clone the Lookup, Reference, Manual Entry, Database, and Headcount tabs. You can either clone the tab setup (structure) only or both the structure and data of the tab.

Cloning is also helpful when you :

• You want to edit the setup of such a tab but you cannot do so, as you've entered values already. After you clone the tab, you are free to make those structural changes.

• You

• If you clone a tab that want to duplicate a tab with a complex setup. Cloning that tab is more efficient than adding a new one from scratch. For example, you might want to have two Database tabs based on the same database but with different filters applied to each one.

Points to note if you clone the tab setup only:

• If the tab has a baseline stream, the new tab will be populated with the baseline values but not any of the values that were entered into the original tab. This is illustrated in the image below, where the baseline values in the top row were overwritten by 100 but when that tab was cloned, the baseline values display instead of those entered values.

• If you clone a Headcount tab, the : The headcount rows (employee data) are not cloned into the new tab. You will likely want to import different data anyway. The headcount drivers, benefits, and benefit plans are cloned.

• If you clone a Manual Entry tab, you : You end up with nothing other than a new empty Manual Entry tab, so is which might not be of much any value to you.

1. Either click the Tab menu in the top-left corner or right-click the tab name

1. at the bottom of the workbook, then select Clone tab setup or Clone tab with data.

2. Enter a name for the new tab, then click Clone tab setup or Clone tab with data, as applicable. The new tab displays to the right of the original tab.
