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!!

It is taking 4 years to develop this? This was submitted in 2017 and is on the roadmap now, am I reading this wrong?


Any update on this?

This is a major need! This was a major need for my agency years and years ago when Workfront was "AtTask"!!


The structure could simply be:


  • Portfolio
  • Program
  • Campaign
  • Project
  • Tasks

100% - this is a huge need for us. We have too many projects that split out in multiple directions. We have to split them into separate projects from the beginning. Would be good to see this and potentially, even have the tasks that are relevant to all the child projects still be associated to the parent.


This would also be good to show projects are related. We have clients we do a "needs assessment" for where we do all of that under one project...and that needs assessment might result in a few separate projects. We could track all the projects under one umbrella this way.
