3. On the *Clone Plus for Jira *page, do the following:
  1. Select the required values for **Clone operation**, **Project**, and **Issue type**. Ensure the selected project has the same version and the same component already created.
  2. In the **Clone options** section, select the following clone option:
    - **Versions**
    - **Components**
4. Click **Clone**.
5. On the *Create issue *page, select values for all the issue fields as required.
6. Click **Create**.  
A successful issue creation message is displayed and the parent issue is cloned with the version and component.

> ℹ️ - If you do not have the **Administer projects **project permission, you can clone versions and components only if they exist in the target project.
> ℹ️ - For more details on the team-managed project permission, refer to the [Team-managed project permissions](https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/next-gen-permissions/) Atlassian page.

> ℹ️ - For more details on the company-managed project permission, refer to the [Managing project permissions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/managing-project-permissions-938847145.html) Atlassain page.
> ℹ️ - The team-managed projects do not have the components. Thus, it is not possible to clone components in the team-managed projects.
> ℹ️ - If either the version or component field has a missing value in the target project, both the version and component will not be cloned. This case is a known issue and will be fixed in the upcoming releases.
