Copy or duplicate a record for repeated job or action in a form

I have this Purchase form contain
1. PO number
2. PO date
3. User
4. Item
5. Quantity
6. Price
7. Completion date
8. PIC
Sometimes every months, I often input to a Purchase Form the same Purchase Order with the same supplier, products, and price. The question would be, can I easily copy the record I chose and paste it in a new record?
Help would be grateful.
Regards.

The best way (I can think of) to do this would be to have a button that set the defaults to the values contained in the current record, at least those you require to be duplicated. It would be wise to reset any defaults when any record is entered too, otherwise you may end up with inappropriate defaults after you no longer need them set.
