What does it mean to duplicate a project?

Duplicating a project allows you to make a carbon copy of a project and all of its contained documents inside of a brand new project.

Duplicating a project is handy if there are a collection of documents within a project that you (or your team) frequently access, or if there is not a project kit that currently containing all of your desired documents. It also prevents:

a) Users accidentally editing over the top of an existing document.

b Users from having to continuously re-add documents from the Template Library.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why aren't all of the contents from the original document transferring over to the new document?

Some data from the original document may be unique or restricted to a particular user or team and therefore can not be carried over to the duplicate document.
