You can export information from one project and import it into another project, or export information from one program and import it into another program on the same system or a different Windchill system. Generally, you can only import into a system at the same or higher release version as the system from which the data was exported. You can export project or program information as a template. A site or organization administrator can then create a template from that information that can be reused by the organization.

You can also save an existing project or program as a new project or program as a means of quickly starting a similar project or program.

You can also import a Microsoft Project plan into the system and export project and program information from Windchill into the Microsoft Project format.
