Saving multiple projects

Hi,

I work on multiple projects at one time - is it best to save these intially as individual projects and link them? or shall i have a master project with sub projects in?

Thank you

RE: Saving multiple projects

Hi Sally

Thanks for your question. It depends on how you want to use resources. If the plans are not resourced (or resources are unique to each plan) then unlinked projects would probably be fine. If however you would like to track one team of resources across multiple projects then a Resource Pool and linked projects would probably more useful.

I hope this helps - do let me know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew
