Clone Dial Plan Schemas
-----------------------

Use this procedure to copy one of the default dial plan schemas (or a previously
customized schema) to use as a starting point when creating a new dial plan schema.

1. Log in to VOSS Automate as the Provider or
   Reseller Administrator.                  
2. Select **Dial Plan Management > Advanced Configuration > Dial Plan Schema**.
3. From the list of dial plan schemas, choose the one to be cloned, by clicking
   on its box in the leftmost column.   
   For more information on the default dial plan schemas, refer to Default Dial
   Plan Schemas.                      

   .. note::                                                         

      There may be duplicate dial plan schemas in the list because some of the
      dial plan schemas may have been auto-cloned to the Provider hierarchy  
      node. For more information, see Auto-Cloning of Dial Plan Schemas and
      Schema Groups to the Provider Hierarchy Node.
      
4. Click **Action > Clone**.
5. From the **General** tab, enter a new unique name for the cloned dial plan in the
   Dial Plan Name field.            
6. If desired, add a description of the new cloned dial plan schema in the
   Description field.                    
7. Modify or add time periods, time schedules, partitions, calling search spaces,
   translation patterns, calling party transformation patterns, called party              
   transformation patterns, CTI route points, route lists, route patterns, and
   SIP route patterns as desired by clicking on the appropriate tab.
