How can I copy phases and tasks from one project to another?

Can I transfer projects from one studio account to another?
We can assist you in transferring projects from one account to another. Please note the following important points:
Once a project is transferred, it will no longer be accessible in the original account.
To keep a copy in the original account, we recommend duplicating the project before initiating the transfer. This way, one copy can be transferred while the other remains with you.
To proceed with the transfer, please contact us from the original account so we can verify and authorize the request.
To proceed with the transfer, please reach out to us via Live Chat or email.

How can I track small tasks that aren't specific task cards?
For tracking small tasks that may not have dedicated task cards, we suggest creating a task card labeled "General Admin" in each of your project management boards.

You can log these tasks under the "General Admin" card for easy organization and tracking.
