Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi All,

I really miss the easy way of copying and pasting in P3 allowing you to change the Activity ID before pasting by using suffix or prefix, applying increment, etc.

How that can be done in P5?

Hi Mohsen,

You can do this by changing first the prefix, suffix & increment in project detail --> default tab --> auto-numbering defaults and uncheck the "Increment Activity ID based on selected activity" if you don’t need to copy the existing Activitiy ID.

Try this.
