    Copy To
     field to select the client to whom you want to copy the information.

    I understand this will replace any existing data
     checkbox and select the
    Copy Now
     button.
    The information from the source tab is copied to the destination tab, replacing any existing information.
  4. Select Enter to save changes to the client.

  2. Select the
    Delete
     button.
