# Cloning the section

You can use this function to save time and avoid repeating the same steps when creating similar sections. 

To use the “*Clone section*” function, follow these steps:

* Go to the “*Sections*” tab and click on the *edit (pen) icon* next to the section name that you want to clone. This will open the section in edit mode.
* Click on the "*three dots menu*" in the upper right corner of the screen. This will show two options: “*Clone section*” and “*Delete section*”.

* Click on the “*Clone section*” option. This will open a new window where you need to enter a code (name) for the new section. The name must be unique and different from the original section. You may only use letters, digits, and underscore symbols.

* Click on the “*Clone*” button to create the new section. This will clone all the settings and attributes of the original section, and return you to the tab you were currently in. You can see the new section on the table (grid) in the "*Sections*" tab, with the name that you entered.
* Alternatively, you can click on the “*Clone & Edit*” button to create a new section and open it in edit mode. This will allow you to make any changes to the new section, such as adding or deleting attributes, or changing the order of the attributes.

You can use the “*Clone section*” function to create multiple sections with similar layouts and features. This can help you streamline your section management and enrichment process in Ergonode PIM.
