# Edit, copy or delete a suggestion

_Skileo Human Resources › Suggestions · Who can do this: Business owner, Member, Employee_

Use the actions button on a suggestion's line or page. Employees change only their own suggestions; the Business owner and members can change any of them.

## Edit a suggestion

1. Click the actions button (**⋮**) on the suggestion's line, or at the top of its page, then “Edit”.
2. Change the title, the type, the description, the anonymous mode or the documents.
3. Click “Save”.

The votes and the comments stay. The card on the right shows the dates and how many votes and comments the suggestion has.

## Copy a suggestion

1. Click the actions button (**⋮**) on the suggestion's line, then “Copy”.
2. A copy appears, with "Copy" at the end of its title, the same type, description and documents, and no votes or comments.
3. Edit the copy and click “Save”.

Until you save it once, the copy is a draft that only you see. Saving it posts it for everyone.

## Delete a suggestion

1. Click the actions button (**⋮**) on the suggestion's line, or at the top of its page, then “Delete”.
2. Confirm.

When the “Business owner” or a member deletes a suggestion, it goes to the “Trash”, and can be restored from there. See [How the trash works in Skileo](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/how-the-trash-works).

> **Good to know**
> When an employee deletes their own suggestion, it is removed for good, with its votes and comments. It doesn't go to the “Trash”.

## Who can do what

- An employee edits and deletes only their own suggestions. They can copy any suggestion.
- The “Business owner” and the members who can change suggestions edit, copy and delete any suggestion.


## Common questions

### Why don't I see Edit or Delete on a suggestion?

It is not yours, and you are an employee. Or you don't have permission to change suggestions. See [Who can see suggestions](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/who-can-see-suggestions).

### Where did my copy go?

It is in the list, but only you see it until you save it. Open it, then click “Save”.
