Hello,
I want to save a edited record as a new record always in sharepoint.
I do not want it to overwrite while editing the record.
How can I achieve it using Infopath.
Regards,
Surabhi

Per my test, there is no option to add a new item into list when editing existing item by using InfoPath.

Hello Emily,
Could you please elaborate more about the "ON" option.
Where can I find this option.

Hello Emily,
Pretty much everything is working as expected but what I need is to be able to save a record, change only a couple of fields and then save it as a new record.
I've tried every combination of rules I could find (I think). And all that happens is that it overwrites the current record. Without going into every combination some of the obvious things I've tried:
Submit but leave form open but entering new data just overwrites.
Rules - most every combination of submitting and then querying, switching to edit item view, send data to webpart (I don't think this actually does anything)...
Tried the above in most any order.
What does work is saving and opening a new form but that resets the data. I've done tons of searches and researching but can't seem to come up with a good answer

Sorry for misleading you.
What I want to say is that "there is no option to add a new item into list when editing existing item by using InfoPath".
I also did lots of tests, including methods you mentioned above, there is really no way to achieve.
