I would like to copy an active workflow from Project A and apply it to Project B. Can you provide the steps on how to do this?

Thanks

Look at the workflow scheme for project B. Copy it, add the active workflow in as appropriate, then associate the new scheme with project B

Hi Nic Brough- I read your reply as "

See https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Activating+Workflow"

one thing to know, if any changes done in project B, will it also affect the project A?

Thanks!

Possibly.  It depends if the two projects are configured to use the same thing that you are changing.  If they do share a single workflow, then yes, of course editing it will change both projects.  If they use separate workflows, then changing one of them will not affect the other.

OK, I see you need a hint:

A computer is able to devide between 0 and 1.

Can you devide between A and B.

First think then answer.

regards

Stefan

I think you need to explain what you are rambling about, instead of telling me to think about something that's got nothing to do with this conversation.
