Open the recipe you want to clone. "Products">"Recipes" and click on the recipe name in the list.
Next, click on the "Clone" button in the grey toolbar.

  1. When you click this, you get a popup to fill in the name of the cloned recipe. The name of the original recipe will be filled in.

For stockable recipes, the packages you created are also copied.

When you copy a recipe to another library, all the ingredients and packages used will also be copied to this library. However, the outlets to which the recipe is linked will not be linked because is basically creating a new recipe and when we create a new recipe we always need to add the outlet again.
