Copy a Project Group
There may be cases where you want a similar Project Group as one that already exists with slight alterations.
In those cases, a project administrator with the corresponding privileges can copy an existing Project Group to create a new one and make modifications as needed.
To copy Project Groups in the Project Administration Portal, users must have either
a) the "Manage Groups, Project Roles, and Project Role Assignments" privilege in their Project Administrator Role, or
b) the "Administer All Projects" privilege in their Instance Administrator Role.
For more information on Project Administrator Roles, see Manage Project Administrator Rolesο»Ώ. For more information on Instance Administrator Roles, see Manage Instance Administrator Rolesο»Ώ.
To copy a Project Group:
- In the Administration Portal, click Projects and select the project in which you want to copy a Project Group. For information on how to access the Admin Portal, see About the Administration Portalο»Ώ.
- Under Projects, click User Management and select Project Groups.
- On the Project Groups page displayed, click the group you want to copy.
