Duplicate a skill when you need variations of the same skill for different clients or document types. You can duplicate any custom skill. To modify a read-only Document skill (a Vantage built-in or a third-party skill), create a derived skill instead — the Duplicate skill button is unavailable for read-only Document skills.

Availability of this feature depends on your role. For more information, see Role-based access control.
A duplicate is an exact copy of the original skill, including its description, demo documents, training documents, and all existing labeling. Select the skill from the list (click anywhere except the skill name), and then click Duplicate skill in the toolbar.

After duplicating

The copy appears in the Skill Catalog as <Original skill name> (Copy). Duplication may take a moment, and the copy isn’t editable until the process completes. A duplicate includes all unpublished changes from the original.
To duplicate only the last published version, select the original skill and click Discard changes in the toolbar before duplicating. For details, see Edit a skill.
Duplicating a Process skill does not duplicate the skills it references. Duplicate those separately if needed. See Duplicate a Process skill.
Publish the duplicate before using it.
