Tip: If the option isn't available check with your admin about this Scope setting for the corresponding Business Case workflow.

2. Follow the creation wizard steps to choose your template and fill out Title, Description, and Owner(s)

Note:

Click the check box next to the Copy Data header to copy all available data at once to save yourself some time.
