Insert and Open Subprojects in New Master Project

You can open any project or a set of projects as subprojects in a new master project. Use the Open dialog box to do this. When you open the subprojects, the selected subprojects are inserted into a new unnamed master file. If you are using Open Workbench with CA Clarity PPM, you can save the new master project back to CA Clarity PPM.

To open a project as a subproject in a new master project

1. Select Open from the application menu at the top left corner of the window.

   The Open dialog box opens and a list of available projects appears.

2. Select the project you want to open as a subproject, complete the following fields, and click OK:

   Open as read-only

   Specifies whether to open the selected project without locking it.

   Note: This check box is available if you have edit rights for the selected project. If you have only view rights, the check box is selected by default and unavailable.

   Create Subprojects

   Specifies whether to open the selected project as a subproject in a new master project.

   The subproject opens in a new, unnamed master project.
