Can we overwrite the changes in existing FSV?

I created a new hierarchy (FSV) based on an existing one. After modifying the new FSV, I attempted to copy those changes back to the original using the "Copy To" menu. However, I encountered an error message stating "Hierarchy ID already exists." While I understand that accounts can be manually added to the existing FSV, I'm wondering if it's possible to overwrite the existing FSV entirely with the new one?

It seems you can't directly overwrite an existing Financial Statement Version (FSV) to prevent possible system errors.
To update an FSV, it appears you need to manually edit the original or delete and rename a new one, but it's advisable to check dependencies first.
It's recommended to test changes in a non-production environment to avoid potential unexpected issues.
