How to Copy and Paste an Activity Within a Workflow

  • Article

Applies To: System Center Service Manager 2010

If your workflow uses multiple activities of the same type (such as multiple Add AD DS Computer To Group activities), you can use copy and paste functionality to quickly duplicate activities. To duplicate the values of the activity’s properties with the activity, set values for the properties, and then copy and paste the activity.

To copy and paste an activity

  1. In the Management Pack Explorer, expand Workflows, right-click the workflow you want, and then click Edit. This opens the workflow in the authoring pane.

  2. In the authoring pane, right-click the activity, and then click Copy.

  3. Do one of the following:

    • To paste the activity at the end of the workflow, right-click the authoring pane, and then click Paste.

    • To paste the activity immediately after an existing activity, right-click the existing activity, and then click Paste.
