    3. Click **Clone**.
    4. For the cloned regulation version, specify details such as changes summary and effective time period of the cloned regulation version.
    5. Save your changes.
        
        When you clone a regulation version record, all the associated mappings with regulation clause versions are retained in the cloned regulation version.

    1. From the regulation version record page that you cloned, go to Regulation Version Regulation Clause Versions on the Related tab.

    3. For the cloned regulation clause version, specify details such as changes summary and effective time period.

    5. Select the regulation version that you cloned recently to map the regulation clause version with.
    6. Save your changes.
        
        When you clone a regulation clause version record, all the associated mappings of compliance policy clause versions, business operations processes, and control are preserved in the cloned regulation clause version record.
3. Publish the regulation version that you cloned in step 1. When you publish the cloned regulation version, all associated regulation clause version records also get published. Learn about the scenarios and rules governing the [Transition Criteria for Regulation Record Status](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.business_compliance_suite_regulation_version_transition.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Learn about the scenarios and rules governing the status transition of Regulation Version and Regulation Clause Version records.").
