Migrate an entire Project (all Related_List data) to a different instance

[Ravi54]

I need to migrate one Project in its entirety to a different instance.

This should include the data from tabs like details/Financials/Notes as well as tall the related_List (such as Tasks, Resource_Plan, Cost_Plan, Risk, Issue, Actions, Decisions, Expenses, etc).

Is there an OOTB export/Import function that will migrate the Entire Project.

Hi

there are two options available

1. Export to Microsoft Project or

2. Export to XML (but use the marked link and not Export > XML!)

Kind regards

Maik, The export does export of the projects table but a Project also has the Details, Financials and other tabs. Project will also have the Related lists like Task, Sub-Projects, Resource, Cost, Risk, Issue.

A simple export does not bring all that information not the XML output.

Related Lists like Risk has export but no way to import.

I need the entire Project to be exported and imported.

Q: the XML also has the ProjectID a Unique field. Does the import generate a new ProjectID for the imported record.

At the end I need the entire Project with all Related data exported.

Is there a Process for it?

Hi Ravi

did you test the given 2 options? These options are not OOTB options but customized versions to export all related project data. That means the exported result should include everything you have described.

Kind regards
