How can reports be efficiently duplicated in Workday?

Utilizing related actions is the most efficient method for duplicating reports in Workday. Related actions allow users to quickly access options that are contextually tied to the report or object they are working with, streamlining the process of duplication. When you use related actions, you can easily create a copy of an existing report along with its configurations and settings, ensuring consistency and saving time.

This method is particularly advantageous because it preserves the structure and essential elements of the original report, making it easier for users to adjust any specific parameters or data points they want to change in the duplicate. Related actions minimize the need for manual input, thus reducing the risk of errors that can occur when creating a report from scratch or copying it manually.

The other options may be valid methods for managing data and reports in different contexts, but they do not offer the same level of efficiency and ease of use as related actions when it comes to duplicating reports specifically. For example, defining new parameters in the settings focuses on customizing reports rather than duplicating them, while creating a manual copy and exporting/importing data can be more time-consuming and complex compared to using the built-in related actions feature.
