Create Object (document) based on the last instance of a report - not a template

Good morning,
We are using M-Files more and more for our Reporting.

We have a Request from a user that they want to use the previous weeks document as the basis for the following week (the actual report document not the template).

How can this be done?


We already have a situation where we have a report template generated automatically every week once the report is sent out it will generate the following weeks template ready for adding information. This is a simple scenario because the following weeks report is based on a static (empty) template that is triggered once the previous weeks is circulated.

But in this instance, the user wants the next weeks report based on the previous weeks with content etc. included so they can just update the previous weeks report with changes.

The report is based on a workflow.

Thank you.

Patrick.
