Duplicate an alert

When you duplicate an alert, the Schedule section of the new alert reverts to the default settings for all new alerts, overriding any date and time parameters that are configured for the alert that you duplicated. For example, if you duplicate an alert that is set to begin at 12:30 PM on August 1, 2015 and your system default is to have all new alerts begin "As soon as I click the "Publish" button," your duplicated alert will begin as soon as you click
Publish
unless you manually change the Alert Timing setting beforehand.
