Subprojects overview

From a project’s summary page, you can manage subprojects using the following menu items that display when you click the Manage Linked Objects icon () .

Add Project: to create a new child project.

Add Request: to create a new child request.

Link Existing: to create a child link to one or more existing projects or requests.

Remove: to remove existing links to one or more child projects or requests.

Note the following.

Security policies must be the same for parent and child projects.

A project’s summary page contains an area showing the links to all of its direct children.

A project can have a child/parent relationship with either another project or a program, but not both. That is, if a project is linked to a program, it cannot be linked to a parent project.

Once you add a subproject, you cannot change the security policy of the parent or child project; you must first remove the link.
