How to Create or Duplicate a Project

Complete workflow guide for project creation and duplication in construction project management

This guide covers how to create new projects or duplicate existing ones in Mastt. Use project duplication when you have a template project configured with standard settings, cost centres, or data that you want to reuse across multiple projects.

Before you start

  • You must be a Workspace Admin.
  • You must have available capacity in your Licensed Project Quota.

Note: If you've reached your Licensed Project Quota, you'll need to add more before creating or duplicating a project. See How to View and Upgrade Your Mastt Subscription for details.

Create a new project

  1. Click your profile name in the top-right corner and select Admin.
  2. Click Projects in the left-hand menu.
  3. Click the blue + Create Project button at the top of the screen.
  4. Enter a project name, optionally upload a project image, and click Next.

Configure project details (optional)

After creating the project, the Project Settings dialog opens with the tabs below. Click Save when you're done, or Cancel to skip.

Tip: Duplicating copies everything in the project except snapshots and documents, including settings, cost centres, configurations, and project data (costs, risks, progress entries). This saves significant setup time when you have standardised project templates.

Troubleshooting and FAQs

What if the + Create Project button is greyed out?

You've reached your Licensed Project Quota. Go to Plan and Billing to add more project quota, or contact Mastt Support to increase your limit.

What gets copied when I duplicate a project?

Everything from the original project is copied except snapshots and documents. This includes settings, configurations, structure, and project data such as costs, risks, and progress entries.
