Parent project vs child project
When you create a new project, you can link it to a parent project. In this case, the new project becomes a child to the parent. This means that the data from child projects can be viewed under the parent project. For example, the Time off roster filtered by parent projects will display child projects time off as well. Under the parent project you can view all team members, coordinators, technical leads, task lists and project statistics, including child projects data. Child project basic information displays the name of the parent project, but the parent project basic information doesn’t display its child projects.
To link a child project to a parent project, go to the Projects module and click Add New. The Basic Info tab will then open.

Alternatively, go to the Projects module and click the Basic Info tab inside of a specific project. The Basic Info tab will then open.

Click on the Parent Project field to view the list of projects and choose a parent project from the dropdown menu. Assign a parent project and click Save.
