'Copy from' option for queries

I'm creating an 'Upcoming Absences' query to compile absences across multiple teams. Currently, there's no function to duplicate or 'copy from' an existing query and then edit it, which means I have to create separate queries for each team. This is time-consuming and inefficient. The challenge lies in the inability to streamline this process, making it cumbersome to manage and compile data effectively.

Describe the Challenge Adding a 'copy from' function would significantly enhance efficiency by allowing users to duplicate existing queries and make necessary adjustments, rather than starting from scratch each time.

    Hi

    When click on an existing query to open it, there is a 'Save as' button. If you click this and put in a different name to the existing query, the query is duplicated and you can then edit the filters.

    Hope this helps, let me know if this doesn't solve your problem

    Thanks,

    Paul
