Method 1: Copy as Follow-On Plan

First open the plan you want to copy from, then tap on Create New Plan from the Plan Menu (the drop down at the top right hand side)

Make sure the 'Follow-on Plan' option is selected.

Give your new plan a unique name to distinguish it from the plan you’re copying from. The year will automatically change to the following year, so tap on the Year drop-down menu to change it back to this year, if you're creating a duplicate plan for same year.
