How to duplicate the doctype with same fields?

NELSON_D1 · December 13, 2023, 10:02am

I created doctype called A with 40 fields. I want to create a document called B with all fields same as A
How do I create something like this?

On your “source” doctype, Copy to clipboard

Create a new doctype and just Ctrl+V

I think it will work.
Hope this helps.

Just close the Quick Entry form after Ctrl+V, and change the name at the bottom.

Then Save.
It’s working for me.

Hope this helps.

This doesn’t work anymore know? I tried creating a basic form with two fields and it still fails for me.
