Ability to move document containers as well as documents to a different place in the organisation/project

4Projects is very much based on an internet explorer type of interface yet it lacks many of the basic requirements we come to expect from such an interface.

Containers often move including their sub containers within a windows system, but its near impossible within a 4P area. 

Understanding that containers within 4P are nothing more than meta data place holders for where information sites, we believe this should be a relatively simple fix

    Guys, this was first put in the suggestion box in 2015 it's now 2024. 9 years.

    It's an essential piece of functionality that is very detrimental to the perceived value of VFP, as projects/sites, regions and businesses move around all the time. Please make this happen or tell us why you cant / wont do it.

    I agree with all the comments regarding this topic. This package is costing its customers a decent amount per quarter - something like this should be done as a matter of priority.

    Is there an update on this please? We have standard templates required for every project and this would be extremely beneficial if we could copy from existing project in to another one as this would save an enourmous anount of time

    This was first raised nearly four years ago! Surely there is a timescale in place by now?

    I agree, this would be extremley useful.  Also the ability to move a whole project to another area would be useful as sometimes we help out other parts of our Region and we each have a different area on our enterprise.
