Article summary

If you want to save time creating new permit applications or planning applications, you can quickly create a new one based on a similar permit or planning application that already exists in the system. This way, you won't have to re-enter information like the description of work, address, property owner, etc.


How to Copy a Permit or Planning Application

  • In the permit or planning application click Details
  • In the Address tab, click the Create Copy button
    Permit, Details, Address Tab, Click Create Copy.png


  • Select the Permit/Planning Type that you want the copy to be created as
    Copy Permit, Create Copy Modal, Select Permit Type.png


Review the Application then Accept

  1. Review the permit/planning application that was created by copying the existing permit (or planning application).
    • All application fields will be pre-filled with information from the original permit, but you can update any fields with new information before accepting the application (for example, you may want to check/update fields like "description of work" or "estimated valuation").
    • Required fields on the new permit will show up at the bottom of the copied application.


  1. Click Accept Application
