Export a Project
The import and export functionality is intended to assist in the sharing of information between systems. Only the project or program manager can perform an import, but all members can export.

You cannot import an archived project across major Windchill releases. Only project managers can import data.
Some web browsers do not support importing and exporting more than 2 GB of data. Consult your browser help documentation to verify before importing or exporting large files.

Exporting a project causes the top level folders to be compressed into a downloadable ZIP file. You can use this to make objects saved in the project or program available on another system. You can also export the milestones, deliverables, activities, plan, team, and team member names associated with that project or program. If the project contains a large number of objects, the operation might be time-consuming.

• You cannot export discussion topics, action items, or meeting information.
• If your project includes multiple plans, only the default plan is included in the Export to File action.
