Copy and Replace of Test Suites in Test Plan looses links to test cases
Using RQM 4.0.3:
The copy and replace function improves efficiency. But I miss the option I have in the "Duplicate" function: duplicate with references (which is even set as default in the duplicate function).
Is it planned to enhance the "copy and replace" function in this direction?
Another small issue: the new artifact is named "Copy of <origin title>".
But for a second copy I get: Copy of <origin title> (2)". I would prefer: "Copy (2) of <origin title>", or use only a post fix, e.g. "<origin title> Copy", <origin title> Copy (2)", ...

Hi Donat,
The following screenshot represents the duplication options in 4.0.5. As you can see we also added a 'Basic Copy' option that isn't present in 4.0.3. 
Other than that, I don't believe we have any current plans to enhance the duplication options. Please feel free to submit an enhancement - https://jazz.net/jazz02/web/projects/Rational%20Quality%20Manager#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.newWorkItem&type=enhancement. To your second issue: current implementation in 4.0.5 is to add 'Copy of' for duplicated objects, such as 'Copy of Copy of Test Case 1'. I think implementing something like 'Copy(2) of Test Case 1' would be a good enhancement. Feel free to file an enhancement against this behavior as well.

Comments Also, as you noted in Copy and replace of Test Cases withing a Test Suite, you can 'Copy and Replace' certain test artifacts if they have multiple parent artifacts. In other words, you can copy and replace Test Cases and Test Suites from a Test Plan. You can also copy and replace Test Scripts from a Test Case.
