Hi Julie
Thanks for your response. For some strange reason resources are managed separately, however that is a separate issue :-).
My thinking was to unlink each sub project on weekly basis and replace them with the updated plans then turn the links back on.
I would welcome your views.
Tony



Thinking about it that idea is not going to work because if new tasks are inserted into the updated workstream plan then some links would be incorrect.
Unless there is any way to create links to a UID rather than an ID?

As far as I know, you cannot link to a GUID instead of a task ID. What precisely are you using the master project for?

Hi Julie
The Master Project picks up all of the key Milestones from all of the sub projects. Normally I would consolidate and filter on Milestones but they want the Master in a pre-defined format and layout.

Is it possible to create a template for the master project and then just create the master project each time for reporting?

Hi Julie
I already have the master template but I still have the issue of linking each of the 12 workstreams key milestones to the master template.
