As an administrator, you can transfer your users' data—email, calendars, documents, sites, and more—from an existing account to a new one. You can also merge data from several accounts into one account. In some cases, you transfer the users' data. In other cases, users move their own data.
Note: If you transfer a lot of data all at once, it might take some time to see the changes.
