Copying datasets/budgets can save time and/or preserve data for reference purposes. You can copy one full dataset or you can add a second dataset and copy specific periods from one dataset and different periods from another dataset. For example, you can copy periods 1-9 from the first dataset and periods 10-12 from the second dataset. If the end period for dataset 1 overlaps with the start period for dataset 2, the overlapping periods will be summed. In essence, you are merging two datasets into one new dataset.
