Explanation

Option D is correct because the proper workflow requires two distinct steps in the right order: first selecting the report you want to duplicate, then choosing Duplicate from the Actions list, and finally typing a new name. This mirrors the standard UI pattern where you identify the target before applying an action to it.

Why the distractors fail:

  • A is wrong because it inverts the flow - you don't navigate to a menu first and then select the report inside it; selection comes before the action.
  • B is wrong because reports are not selected from a pop-up window launched by clicking Actions; the selection happens in the main list before Actions is clicked.
  • C is wrong because the duplication is done through the Actions list, not a right-click context menu.

Memory tip: Think "Select, then Act" - you always highlight what you want first, then go to Actions to do something with it. The word "Duplicate" only appears after a report is already selected, which rules out any option that opens a menu before selecting.
