This article explains how to transfer files and folders between projects in Next Project using the copy and move features. It covers how to copy documents from other projects, customers, or suppliers into your current project, how to copy files and folders to another project, and how to move files either within the same project or across different projects.

If you work with files that are relevant to multiple projects — such as general guidelines or template libraries — Next Project makes it easy to copy and move those files wherever you need them.

Copy Documents from Another Location

To copy a document or another file into your project, start by navigating to the folder in the document tree where you want the documents to live. Then select Add and choose Add document from...

Document menu open; note the option to link documents from project, customer, or supplier.

From here, you can choose whether you want to copy a document from another project (such as a document library) or from a customer or supplier.

Select the documents you want to copy and click Get.

Copy Files and Folders to Another Project

To copy individual files or entire folders to another project, select the files and folders you want to copy, then choose Copy to.

Choose which project the files should be copied to, and specify where in its document structure the files and folders should be placed.

When you're ready, click Copy.

"Skapa kopia" dialog: user selects target project and destination folder before copying.

Move Files Within a Project or to Other Projects

To move files from one project to another — or within the same project — use the Move to option.

Document tree view showing the 'Flytta till' (Move To) toolbar button highlighted.

Select the folder or files you want to move, choose Move to, and then specify the project and folder where you'd like them to be placed. You can of course also use this to move files within the same project.

Alternatively, you can move files and folders within the same project by selecting them and simply dragging and dropping them to the desired location.
