To copy data from the current data-entry field to subsequent fields in the same row and change that value by an amount or percentage, perform the following steps.
- Click the data-entry field from which you would like to copy data.
Note: Planner CS copies data from the cursor position to the right.
- Choose Edit > Auto Increase. The Auto Increase dialog opens.
-
Use the Change Value By group box to change the amount copied before pasting it to the new location.
- To change a value by a percentage, either enter a number in the % field or use the arrows to select the number. Note that you cannot use negative numbers or numbers greater than 100.
- To change a value by a dollar amount, enter that amount in the $ field.
Note: You can enter an amount in one of these fields, but not both.
-
Use the options in the Auto Copy Type group box to control how data is copied using the Auto Copy function.
- If you mark the Within Alternative option, Planner CS automatically copies the contents of the selected field into all remaining fields in the same row within the same alternative.
- If you mark the Same Year option, Planner CS automatically copies the contents of the selected field into the same year and same row of all remaining alternatives.
Notes
- The Auto Increase feature is not available when the cursor is in the base year of a single base year plan. To use Auto Increase from the base year of a single base year plan, first toggle out of the base year plan view by choosing View > Single Base Year.
- Planner CS copies the information as described for both options only to the right of the selected row. For example, If you have a plan with five alternatives, and select a field in Alternative 3, using either command copies the selected information only to Alternatives 4 and 5.
