Create a work schedule and copying it from day to day?

I have a work scheduling app that is updated daily.Many times the details within the schedule remain static for days. I have not been able to find a way to duplicate say Monday to Tuesday without recreating a schedule. For efficiency reasons this can be a pain. I know you can do something like this by copying and pasting a report in Grid edit, but that won't work for my needs. I am using multiple assignment tables between my various detail tables and a scheduler table. (See attachment). Is this possible to do?

    Just to elaborate a little. Using the copy this schedule option under More drop down, next to Email, also, is not an option as it does not carry over the details of the schedule. I wanted to clarify that in case someone is wondering why I did not just try that. :)

    OK so you�re looking to copy a parent with it children.

    There is a built-in wizard tool available to help you make a button to do that.

    To locate the built-in to go to the home page of the application and then into settings and then look under App Management for a tool called

    Copy Master Detail.

    Post back if you have any problems.
