Copying Issues

Copying allows you to copy the information from an existing Issue into a new Issue, which can be linked to the original Issue.  This feature is useful in a number of situations, for example:

• A closed Issue needs to be reopened, but for administrative purposes a new Issue must be created.
• A new Issue needs to be created that is very similar to an existing Issue.
• An Issue must be moved or copied to another Project.
• A new Issue needs to be linked to an existing Issue.

To copy or move an Issue, click the number of that Issue to access the Details page, and click Copy/Move.  You have the following choices:

• Copy Issue in this Project
• Cross-Project Copy
• Move to Another Project

There are a number of Copy Restrictions that should be reviewed before copying or moving issues.
