Dynamics 365 Project Operations: Import tasks into a project from other projects

Dynamics 365 Project OperationsRolling outMicrosoft 365 Roadmap

Currently, to bring tasks from another project into a new project, you must manually enter the task details in the task grid or use schedule APIs. You can also use the Copy project feature to create a new project with the same tasks, but this feature has limitations:
​

  • You copy the entire project, including unwanted tasks and extra information.
  • You can't combine tasks from multiple projects into a new project.
    ​
    With this feature, you can select and import tasks from one or more existing projects into a new project, saving time and effort. You can choose the project and tasks to import while adhering to the task limits per project as specified in the public documentation.
    ​
    When this feature is enabled in the feature control settings, you can:
    ​
  • Select the Import Tasks button from the project ribbon.
  • Use the project picker to select the source project in the side pane.
  • See the grid populate with the tasks associated with that project after a project is selected.
  • Choose the tasks to be imported into the target project, and then select Add.
  • Know that imported tasks are automatically appended to the target project's Work Breakdown Structure (WBS).
