How Subprojects are Opened (Microsoft Project)

Subprojects that you have set to read-only are opened from CA Clarity PPM in Microsoft Project as read-only. The case holds good, unless the subprojects are already open in read/write mode, or you open them later as read/write. In this case, the subprojects in the master project temporarily change to read/write.

As long as you open the master project as read/ write, subprojects that you open as read/write, open so in Microsoft Project.

Note: You can update read/write master projects and subprojects, and link master projects to other master projects from different computers. You can do so, until the user who first checks out the master project checks it in before you.
