Cloning an experiment is not a good ELN practice.
The good practice is to create an experiment from to a template.
→ Instead of cloning a full ELN Experiment, you can clone ONLY AN ITEM from another experiment:
Add an item allows you to:
- work with good practices
- save time for repetitive item like protocol or procedure
- have less chance of forgetting to modify data compared to experience cloning
- add an item from “Close & Lock” and “Archive” experiments
Add item in an experiment
You can find all information in this presentation.
0. Create a new experiment from a template
1. Click on "insert item" 
2. Click on "Existing item (s)" 
3. Select one or several item(s) from one or several previous experiment(s).
→ Possible to add item from a “Close & Lock “ and “Archive” experiment”
4. Click on “Insert”
5. Your item is added in your experiment!
→ you can move it (up or down) like the other item.
6. You can fill and save your experiment as usual.
WARNING:
It's not possible to duplicate an item through “favorite hierarchy”.
→ It's not an issue with your experiment but with its path to found it. To add an item, always search your experiment in your classic hierarchy and not through your favorite.
