The Copy From Trip option allows administrators to create a new trip by duplicating an existing trip configuration. Instead of creating a route from scratch, the system copies the route structure, stoppages, path and the student allocation from a previously configured trip, significantly reducing setup time and ensuring consistency.
This option is useful when creating similar routes for a new academic year, additional vehicles, or duplicate pickup and drop operations.

You can modify the route or add a Return point.
