How to Duplicate a Demographic

The Demographics feature in Vamp lets teams create and manage demographic options for interview guides and respondent data.

Duplicating a demographic quickly creates a new option based on an existing one, saving time when reusing or modifying categories. You can duplicate both default and custom demographics, then edit the duplicate to fit your needs.
