Separate a subproject from its parent project

When a subproject grows beyond its original scope, you may want to make it stand-alone project or move it to a different project hierarchy.

1. Click PROJECT ADMIN from the Project Home menu.
2. On the Project Settings page, click Edit Parent.
3. Change the parent project as required. You can be a project administrator or a site administrator to change or remove a parent project. As a project administrator, you can remove or change a parent project only if you have administrator permissions for both the projects that are being linked.
   Note: A parent project can be removed or changed only when its members, user groups and roles are not in use in any other project. In other words, you can not remove/change a parent project while its members, user groups or roles are in use in any other project.
   • • On the Choose a Parent Project page, select the desired parent project and click Update.
     Note: If the project hierarchy exists, the project and its subprojects are moved only under the project from which members, user groups or roles are inherited. If project hierarchy does not exist and no inheritance is in use, the project is made a 'Root' project.
   • • Click Remove Parent in the Project Settings page to remove the association with parent project.
     • On the pop-up message box, click OK, if you wish to make the project a 'Root' project.
   The project hierarchy is changed or removed in accordance with role based access control and inheritance rules.
