Moving tasks/stories to another Version One project while preserving data

Version One allows you to move stories between project. It maintains some information like Status, Estimate, Owner, etc. It doesn't seem to preserve certain things like Feature Groups. I used this technique to do it.

1. Start in the Product Planning: Feature Groups area.
2. Duplicate the feature groups in the other project
3. In Project One, select a set of stories with Filter: Feature Group for the one you want.
4. Move all the stories to the other project
5. In Project Two, select all the newly added stories. They won't have a Feature Group.
6. Use "Move to Feature Group" to put them in the right group again.

 Note: You can also drag/drop stories into a particular feature group if you want to do it one at a time.

Creating feature groups in Version One

I use "feature groups" in Version One to track tasks that are being executed and group them together by particular themes. In this case, I have some performance testing areas for a set of features in the product that I want to track.

This is done through Product Planning > Feature Groups.

In this case, I have the following breakdown:

• Performance
• Perf: Reporting
• Perf: Collection
• Perf: Alerting

This way, all tasks roll up to performance testing.
