    • "Copy this task within the same project" will duplicate the task from project A into project A.

    • Check the "File attachments" box if you wish to copy all files that may have been attached to the task.
    • Check the "User assignments" box if you wish to keep the same users assigned to the task. Note that if you leave this box unchecked, the task will be un-assigned.
  • Click the "Go to Step 2" button to continue to step 2. Click "Back" to return to the task without moving or copying it.

• The Step 2 of 2 tab displays the current parameters on the left, and the new parameters on the right for the task you are about to move or copy.
  • There are 5 required fields : Task Number, Status, Group, Type, and Priority.
  • If the task's number already exists in the destination project, AceProject will recommend you the next task number available automatically.
  • You must choose start and end dates that fit within the destination project's start and end dates.
  • Whenever the task's status, group, type or priority is also present in the destination project, they will be selected. If not, the fields will be left blank.
  • When moving or copying a task to a destination project, assignments will remain as they were in the source project, as long as the users are also assigned to the destination project. For example, if users ABC and XYZ were assigned to the source project, their assignments will remain the same in the destination project. 
  • Click "Move this task" or "Copy this task"  to complete the operation.
  • Click "Cancel" to return to the task without moving or copying it.
