Manage Multiple Projects

You can use Open Workbench to handle multiple projects for department-level management. Project teams typically work on large and small projects simultaneously. To manage departments and organizations, you may often have to manage and control several projects at once. Many of these projects may also share the same resources.

Open Workbench provides the following two methods for you to manage multiple projects:

• Create master project and subproject relationships.

  Create links between one project (master project) to all or any sets of phases, activities, tasks, and milestones in another project (subproject). You can combine any number of subprojects in a master project.

• Create dependency relationships between tasks in the same project or to tasks in different projects.

  Use dependencies to manage the relative timing of tasks. Dependencies give you a greater understanding of your project's work flow, and helps to pinpoint weaknesses in project plans.
