# Make changes to work breakdown structure

On a project change order work breakdown structure, you can:

- Add three types of lines:
  - **Project** - You can only add projects to the root project line.
  - **Subproject** - You can only add subprojects to project lines. You can add subprojects to both new and existing project lines.
  - **Task** - You can add tasks to any line in the work breakdown structure. You can add tasks to both new and existing lines.
- Change the values of existing lines. For a line of task type:
  - **Project**, you can only change the description.
  - **Standard**, you can change almost all values.
- Stop existing tasks.

> [!NOTE]
> **Notes**
> 
> If the project is created from a project execution quotation, you also create an activity in the project change order WBS. In this case, in the **Project** field, link the activity to the relevant (sub)project of the related project quotation WBS. If the project change order is confirmed, and a progress bill report is created, the activity is shown under the right project.
