Hi all, 

I have one strange question. When we do a migration between team-managed project to a company one, we usually prepare the fields, screens, workflows etc and then move the issues to the newly created project BUT:

1. If we use the move option, we loose data from the custom fields, created in the team-managed project

2. If we do not use the move option and choose to import the issues via .csv we loose comments and attachments .

Is there any way to do not loose data during the migration?

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

disclaimer: while I have done a lot of exporting and importing of CSV files I have not done this for TMP projects. With that being said….


Can you not use the move and then use CSV import to pick up anything this missed?

  1. export TMP
  2. Move issues
  3. export your CMP
  4. Merge your two exports to result in CMP issue key and custom fields
  5. import your CSV

ugly?….yep absolutely
