Summary
This video demonstrates how to copy and delete projects using Project for the Web. It covers both default and custom instances, since the project to copy and delete projects via a default Project for the Web instance and custom instance are very different. For the custom instance you must use the Project Power App interface.
When it comes to using templates with Project for the Web this is great as a way of ensuring standardization across projects. For instance, phases and stages may be standardized, which helps ensure consistent reporting. When using Templates with Project for the Web it's also possible to set the project to inactive. This makes the project read-only, which prevents the template from accidentally being changed.
When copying a project, whether from a template or other project, assignments are not copied. You may, however, utilize existing Office 365 groups that contain teams of users, which simplifies creating the project team. Also, when you create the project, be sure to revisit the dates as they will remain the same as in the original project. If your task dependencies have been created successfully, you need only to change the project start date, which will automatically update all the other dates in the project.
