Project Plan Tab
The project plan tab is used to define what are each of the sub projects, and what tasks need to be completed for each of the sub projects. Also add budgets for costs and time to define how long each sub project or task will take to complete, and then schedule a staff member to complete the task. 
NEW 4.8
Tip: The Project Plan tab is only shown if the Resource and Capacity Management module is enabled. If this module is OFF, then the Sub Projects Tab will be shown, but the Project Plan, Work Breakdown and Schedule tabs are not shown. Contact the Total Synergy Support Team to request the Resource and Capacity Management module.
What is the Project Plan?
The project plan is made up of three tabs, which are used for the following purposes:
- Sub Projects
Define what sub projects are required to complete the scope of the project. Sub
projects provide you with the ability to breakdown the project into multiple
stages with different fees and/or fee types for each.
- Work Breakdown - NEW 4.8Define the tasks that make up each sub project, and budget how long each will take to complete. Add details of any expected costs for the sub project or tasks. *Synergy Enterprise clients only - Resource and Capacity Management module*
- Schedule - NEW 4.8Define when each task for the sub project will be completed, and assign which staff member will complete the task. *Synergy Enterprise clients only - Resource and Capacity Management module*
