Move Opportunity Assignments Dialog Box

When you close or inactivate an opportunity because you were awarded the contract and that opportunity has resource assignments, use the Move Opportunity Assignments dialog box to move the assignments to the resource plan for the corresponding project.

Before you can move resource assignments to a project plan, that project, with its work breakdown structure (WBS) specified down to the levels at which you want to assign resources, must already exist in Deltek Resource Planning.
