(blue star) copies entries from Dockets, Timesheets, Plant, and Stock
(blue star) copies Output only if this daysheet header job is associated to the output schedule
(blue star) does not copy File Attachments, Extension Columns, and Datasheets
(blue star) replaces all source tab dates with this daysheet date
(blue star) replaces all source tab jobs with this daysheet header job if specified
(blue star) if source activity is valid in this daysheet header job then leave as is else clear
(blue star) if source work centre is valid in this daysheet header job then leave as is else clear

D. Clears the ‘Can Copy’ flag of the selected daysheet so that it no longer lists as a copy-able daysheet.
