Copy: a copy of the grid is being made. All future changes to the grid by the original author will not be considered. All items in the grid become editable and can be adjusted to individual needs. 

Copy for editing materials only: this function is used when a published grid is being used without the possibility to edit competences but being able to add individual material. This way a link to the published competence grid is established. Competences and subcompetences cannot be changed. If the original grid is changed this is also reflected in the grid copied this way. Learning materials can be added. Added material is not added to the original grid.

Note: if a collaboration between users should take place the original author of the grid should add contributors to the grid using the meta data column of the grid.
