As work proceeds on a tracker artifact, its focus may change. If this happens, it may
be appropriate to move the artifact into a different tracker, or to a tracker in a different
project.
To move a tracker artifact between projects, you must have either the tracker
administration permission or tracker 'view,
submit,
edit
and delete' permissions in both the source and destination
projects.
You can move one or more tracker artifacts in the same operation.
-
Click TRACKERS from the Project
Home menu.
-
On the list of project trackers, click the title of the tracker containing the
tracker artifact that you want to move.
-
Select the tracker artifact (or artifacts) that you want to move, and
click
Cut.
CollabNet
TeamForge removes the tracker
artifacts and places them on the clipboard.
-
Go to the tracker into which you want to paste the tracker artifacts.
Note: To move the tracker artifacts into another project, first find the
destination project using your Projects menu.
-
Click Paste.
- If all artifact assignees have the appropriate permissions in the
destination tracker, the tracker artifacts are now moved.
- If not, the Paste Artifacts window tells you how
many tracker artifacts cannot be reassigned automatically.
-
Choose one of the following methods to reassign any unassigned tracker
artifacts.
-
Reassign Artifacts to: - Assigns all unassigned
tracker artifacts to the project member you select.
-
Myself - Reassigns all unassigned tracker artifacts
to you.
-
Click Next.
The tracker artifacts are now moved to the destination tracker. The details of the
move are recorded in the
Change Log tab of the
Artifact
Details page.
- If the project members to whom the tracker artifacts are assigned have the
appropriate permissions in the destination project, the tracker artifacts are
automatically reassigned to the same project members. If not, you are offered
several options for reassigning them.
- If both trackers use the same user-defined fields and field values, values in
these fields are retained.
- If each tracker uses different user-defined fields or field values:
- Values are set to the default value, if one was specified by the tracker
administrator. Default values are mandatory for required fields.
- Values are set to None, if no default value was
specified by the tracker administrator.
