You can use templates to easily add (parts of) a work breakdown structure.
A template is a predefined work breakdown structure that you can reuse in several advanced work breakdown structures.

A template can contain predefined:

  • Projects
  • Activities
  • Estimate lines
  • Calculation data
  • Cost codes

The project setup and price setup are not included in a template.
You can import a template beneath the root project or a subproject.

 

When you import a WBS template:

  • The complete WBS as defined in the template is imported.
  • The start dates of the imported tasks are defined based on:
    • The start date of the task to which you import.
    • The predecessor relations of the imported tasks.
  • The standard work calendar of the destination project is applied to define the end dates of the imported tasks.

After a template import, you can change the imported WBS lines.
