How to merge Projects?

This feature allows you to combine 2 duplicated Projects into a single Project

This feature enables you to combine 2 duplicated Projects into a single, cohesive Project. By merging Projects, you can consolidate all Tasks, Phases, and Work Categories from the selected Project into another Project, streamlining your workflow and ensuring all relevant information is contained within a unified project structure.
