Do you sometimes find yourself documenting several nearly identical things, or even cataloging an item that is nearly identical to something you or a colleague had documented earlier? CatalogIt has a neat feature that can save you time and effort. Here's how to use it:
- Find the Entry that has already been recorded.
- From the Entry view mode (not in “Edit”), click on the Actions menu (the three dots in the upper right).
-
Select “Duplicate”.
This generates a new Entry that is nearly identical to the first one — you’ll need to give the new Entry a name and add its own images and condition assessment. If your account has auto-numbering enabled (either Accession numbering and/or Entry/Object ID numbering), CatalogIt will auto-assign the next number for this new Entry.
For more on the accession process, see our MasterIt resource below.
