Merge Projects in CLM V4
Hi,
we are looking to merge multiple projects into one new one, this will be on version 4.0. If required (And definite way to make it happen) we can look at merging into a V4.01 project on a different server.
Has anybody experience of doing this? Or better still how to do this?
Many thanks
Mark.

Hi Mark,
for all I know there is no built in capability to merge projects on a single server, let alone across servers. A lot of users are waiting for both kinds of capabilities and there are work items and RFE's for this.
There is a capability to do a bulk work item copy/move between two project areas - I believe on one server: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/BulkMoveWorkItemsBetweenProjectAreas . There is distributed SCM that would allow you to copy SCM data. Ther is CSV export/import that can help with moving some work item data around. You can export process templates and create new projects from it. However, all in all, there are gaps in what can be done and the more you want (e.g. work item history) the bigger effort you have to spend on developing API based tools. See http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/08/01/uploading-attachments-to-work-items/ for some thoughts.
