Duplicate a control point
Duplicating a control point lets you create a point-in-time copy that you can modify as desired without affecting the original. You can duplicate control points with any status.

The control point will reflect the Published status, and can be applied to risk scores as needed, and you will go back to the Custom control points section.
Select Cancel anytime to go back to the Custom control points section without duplicating the control point.
