Cloning plans and services
Smile makes it easy to clone an existing plan to make a new plan. For example, if you have a plan called ABC ADSL2 20GB Shaped, and you want to create another called ABC ADSL2 40GB Shaped, which is identical apart from the name and included capacity, then you can clone the first plan to create a new plan. Edit the new plan with the changes, such as the plan name, included capacity and invoice description.
You cannot clone a plan in one service to create a new plan in a different service. You can clone services which creates a full copy of a service and its associated plans.
