Hi Shreya,

You need to make sure that all dependant jobs are available,
as well as routines, transforms whichever used if any

and make sure that the new project has the same configuration similar to the existing one -> Tunables, Director administration etc in Project properties.

Export jobs from the old project using the Export menu in Manager clients to export "DataStage Components". Make sure you have everything you need in that dialog - you may need to use multiple passes appending to the file, if you want to export more than one but not all jobs in a category.

The export file is saved onto your client machine, in a location of your choosing. Copy its pathname into your clipboard.

In the new project, import using the Import menu in Manager, and refer its dialog to the export file that you created. You can paste its pathname into the dialog, because you copied it earlier.
