Copy Plans (tppss0211m000)
Use this session to copy data from a project plan (the source) to a new plan for the same or another project (the target).
The target project must not contain any data.
Select the appropriate check boxes to copy activities, budget data and cost objects.
- If a material budget line is copied for which a configured generic item is present, the product variant cannot be copied.
- For PCS items, the product variant is copied only if the budget line is copied within the same project.
If the budget line with a PCS item is copied to another project, the PCS item cannot be copied and must be replaced:
- If the item originates from a configured generic item, the generic item will replace the PCS item in the new project. The item that replaces the PCS item must be present in the Items - Project (tppdm0505m000) session, otherwise the budget line cannot be copied.
- If the item is derived from a standard item, the standard item will replace the PCS item in the new project. The item that replaces the PCS item must be present in the Items - Project (tppdm0505m000) session, otherwise the budget line cannot be copied.
- If the item is not derived from a standard or configured item, the budget line is not copied.
