Use subprojects to split a main project into smaller parts \u2013 for example by building, construction phase, contract or delivery. This makes it easier to organise documentation, follow up requirements and manage the work on larger or more complex projects.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Note:<\/span> Creating subprojects is only available on the Ensure plan. See how to upgrade to Ensure<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Note:<\/span> A subproject is always linked to its main project and uses the main project’s project type. On the form, Region \/ Subsidiary \/ Project<\/strong> and Project Type<\/strong> are filled in for you and can’t be changed.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
