Copy Project
This function allows you to create a new Project containing the same Parts as the copied Project.

You can copy the Project and amend it, rather than having to recreate everything from scratch.
Click the Copy Project button.
The Copy Project box will appear.
NOTE: Suppliers and prices are not automatically copied with the rest of the Project. If you want to copy them as well, check the checkbox.
- Click Copy.
The new Project' reference number is the next number after the current highest Project number. For example, if the current highest Project number is ZZZ/37, the new Project reference will be ZZZ/338. The status of all Parts in the new Project is set to New.
