Roll Over MS Project Plan on a monthly basis

[RB]

Hi,

A project plan is now being moved to a business as usual role. This will
require the person to create a plan every month. Is there any roll over
feature in MS Project which will enable the plan to move to a current month
by following few steps?

Thanks,

Create a file with 0% complete just the way you would want it before the
month starts. Save a copy. Use the original as you please. Try to avoid
typed in dates, they create constraints... not good.

Next month, open the copy. There is an "Adjust Dates" utility on the
Analysis Toolbar. Click that and key a new start date. All the dates march
as needed. Save your new schedule with a new name leaving the "template" for
Month3.
