# Create a sub-project for a job

Add a sub-project to organize a distinct part of an existing job. A separate record helps identify the work package and its own details while retaining the relationship to the parent project.

Help me create a sub-project under an existing job. Ask for the parent project number, sub-project name, start date, and any estimates. Confirm the parent and prepare the sub-project for my approval before saving.

## When to use it

A larger job includes a separate room, installation phase, or deliverable that should have its own project record.

## What you need

An existing parent project, a sub-project name, any confirmed dates or estimates, and permission to create projects.

## What you’ll get

- The resolved parent project and the proposed child-project details.

- A sub-project creation action for review before saving.

## How to use it

Open the prompt in Millbase, sign up or sign in if needed, then review the editable draft before sending.

Use a descriptive name such as a room or work package. Review reporting scope afterward rather than assuming every report automatically includes all children of a parent job.
