To save time when setting up and maintaining classes using
similar categories and assignments, you can copy categories and assignments.
With Copy Class Setup, you can select specific categories and
assignments to copy, copy from previous academic years, and copy to multiple
marking columns and classes in an academic year. You can copy assignments and
categories separately and use it during initial setup or as new assignments are
added. Duplicate categories and assignments are not copied.
Date fields copy if you copy assignments from and to the
same marking column, even in different academic years. Always review and edit
assignment dates after copying.
