I will explain this as best as I can.
I am hoping to find a way to perform the following:
We are creating a project template to be used on similiar projects
with a similiar methodology. Depending on the project and variables
(which come up often enough to want to automate but don't belong in
every project) certain additional tasks must be done.
I currently have a very basic, nothing extra project plan. Accounting
for every scenerio would leave me with 10 or more project plans that
would still require heavy modification anyway.
What I would like to do is have a way to indicate which of several
scenerios (usually more than one applies) fits the project and to be
able to insert the tasks into the basic plan.
I do not know VB.
I do not want to insert seperate projects into the basic project,
because we have to distribute the project plan to various interested
parties at any time during the project and it doesn't seem feasible.
Also, inserting projects into the basic project won't solve the
problem of extra things that have to be done during discovery etc.
I thought of somehow putting everything into seperate excel worksheets
and importing whichever is appropriate.
After all of that... my question is:
Is there a way to insert tasks associated with a given scenario into
its appropriate section based on a list of predefined tasks we know
will have to be completed.
For instance.. we would want add a task to the discovery phase and add
three tasks to implementation.. for three different scenerios that
apply to a particular project.
If it is still confusing, please let me know.
Thanks for any ideas you can provide to solve this problem.
