If you're set up for enterprise project management c using Microsoft Office Project Professional 2003 and Microsoft Office Project Server 2003, p you can use the Portfolio Analyzer to see a high-level overview of multiple enterprise i projects. Reviewing multiple projects' information in a master project structure is analogous to using the enterprise Portfolio Analyzer feature. If you're managing the overall project, your master project can give you the view you need into the planning and execution of all the subprojects. This structure is most useful when you have a large project containing a number of subcomponents, especially if those subcomponents are managed by other project managers. The task information is changed in the source project file as well, because the two projects are linked by default.Īlthough you might insert projects for a variety of reasons, the most effective use of this capability is to create a master project structure with subprojects inserted within that master project. You can view and change all tasks within that inserted project. Inserted projects look and act like summary tasks in any task view, with their subordinate tasks readily available. With Microsoft Project, you can insert one project into another.
