Hi folks - I am a newbie, so let me apologize upfront if this question is repetitive! If it is, please feel free to refer to an existing thread about it?!
Isn't there some way to create a 'project within a project'?? I realize I can create a folder to group multiple projects but then I lose the gantt capabilities (folders won't do that function). So what I really need is a way to group tasks into a "sub-project".
Any and all help is much appreciated!
-newly yours,
Julie
Hi Julie,
You can use the summarize feature to include multiple projects within a project.
Create a Folder to contain the workspace, within that folder create a master Project.
e.g.
/username/folder
/username/folder/mainproject
Create a Sub-Folder that will contain the sub-projects.
e.g.
/username/folder/subprojectfolder
Create your sub-projects in this folder.
e.g.
/username/folder/subprojectfolder/subproject1
/username/folder/subprojectfolder/subproject2
Edit mainproject, check the "Include Descendants" checkbox, next to "Base Item", click Select. Choose the subprojectfolder: /username/folder/subprojectfolder, click OK.
All of the tasks that appear beneath the subprojectfolder will now display in the mainproject.
Kind regards,
Michael
