This week, we will learn how to copy a Custom Field from one Project to another (Part 5).
Let’s get started.
There are two ways to copy a Custom Field from one project to another project.
The first way is when you create a new Custom Field.
Step 1
On the Name Entry screen in the wizard, click the radio button for Multiple Projects and then click Finish (Figure 1).
Step 2
The Custom Fields: Select Project(s) dialogue box opens. Select the projects you want to copy the new Custom Field to and then click OK (Figure 2).
A warning message will appear, click OK. The new Custom Field has been copied to multiple projects.
The second way is copying an existing Custom Field into other projects.
Step 3
From the Custom Fields tab of the project properties, highlight the Custom Field you want to copy and then click Save to Project (Figure 3).
Step 4
The Custom Fields: Select Project(s) dialogue box opens. Select the projects you want to copy the existing Custom Field to and then click OK (Figure 4).
A warning message will appear, click OK. The existing Custom Field has been copied to multiple projects.
It’s that easy!
Final Notes: This procedure can be followed using the QuickStart or Pro interface.
