Cut or Copy and Paste a Task on the Task List Page

To save time entering data, the Task List page supports cut, copy, and paste operations for tasks and task milestones. The cut operation enables you to easily move tasks around in the table. Use the copy operation to duplicate tasks in the table. You can perform these operations on a single task, or you can perform them on multiple activities. When the new tasks are created, they are automatically assigned a task ID according the auto numbering settings defined for the project. Hand-offs are not included in copied tasks.

To cut or copy and paste tasks on the Task List page:

  1. In the object selector, select Project, select View Projects List, and then select a project name.
  2. From the Main Menu, select Tasks, and then select Task List.
  3. In the table, select one or more task or task milestone rows, select the Context menu, and then select Cut Rows or Copy Rows.
  4. Select a new row in the table, select the Context menu, and then select Paste Rows.
  5. All changes made to this page are saved automatically.
