# Copying Records fylr allows you to **copy records** in multiple contexts, providing flexibility to duplicate data, create variations, or save temporary templates for reuse. Records can be copied from the **search results context menu**, within the **sidebar**, and from the **full-screen editor**. ## How to Copy a Record ### **From Search Results:** * Right-click on the record in the search results. * Select the desired copy option from the menu. ### **From the Sidebar:** * Open the record in the sidebar (detail or editor). * Click the **Copy** button or context menu in the upper right corner and select the desired copy option. ### **From the Full-Screen Editor:** * While editing a record in full-screen mode, access the **Copy** menu in the upper right corner. * Choose one of the three copy options to duplicate the record or create a template. ## Copy Options When copying a record, you can choose from three options, depending on your configuration and requirements. The actual records are only created after saving. ### **Copy with Reverse** This option is available depending on your configuration. It creates a copy of the record and all reverse linked records. All fields are duplicated exactly as they are, and the new record(s) can be edited independently of the original(s). ### **Copy without Reverse** Creates a direct copy of the selected record. All fields are duplicated exactly as they are, and the new record can be edited independently of the original. Reverse-linked records are not copied. ### **Copy as Adhoc Template** Creates a temporary template based on the record. The template is not saved permanently and can be used immediately when creating new or editing existing records. When a new adhoc template is created, any previous adhoc template is overwritten. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
