Parent/Child Projects

I apologize if this is duplicate but I did not see it anywhere. We have a need to create parent projects that would live between the Program level and the current project level. While I understand that the work could be completed in one project using parent/child tasks we have many departments that would prefer to have their projects tracked separately. There would be many child projects which would roll up to many parent projects and into ONE program.

I saw some talk about this on the Global forum but that was it. Please help me vote up this feature request!

Thanks!!

Michael

Hi Elissa - I would like to be included in a discussion as well. I think there are a number of different use cases. However, in general terms, the concept of creating an other layer for bucketing objects is ideal.

Hello - I'm interested in being part of this discussion as well. We recently merged teams and this would be very beneficial in the way we are currently handling projects.

We are no longer doing research sessions about this, but let me reach out to the Product area owners and see if there's something we can do to collect your feedback. Thank you Kathy, Dawn, Kirsten, & JoLisa for expressing interest.


I'll report back what I learn!

Hi Everyone! We've talked to many of you and want to thank all of you for signing up to talk to us about this issue. We have a survey for those of you who are interested that we'd love to have you take. We realize we're asking for you to give us even more input and for that I apologize, but we're prioritizing this idea and want to make sure what we build will meet your needs.


I will post the survey as soon as I get approval!
