Creating a Product SubTask

When the product type of a newly added product is the same as that of a parent product task, the product subtask, which is an instance of the parent product task is created. A subtask is named as name of the parent task followed by marketing name of the product.

  1. From WBS tab page, click Categories > Add Subtask Below. A form opens where you can provide the information.

  2. Create a parent task. For more information, see Adding a Product Task.
