There are more than one way to create a project. You can choose between the options below:

2. Template: reuse the preconfigured hierarchy of a project from your templates.
3. Duplicate: reuse the structure of an existing project.

Note

With the duplicate project option, the links with notebooks templates, quality documents are automatically updated. The status, date, edited notebook, items, equipments are not duplicated.
