Project Templates

Base & Master Templates are independent from each other. The Base Template contains the base setup for a project, for example the Project Posting Group and the WIP Method. Elements and Activities are optional. You can link a Master Template to a Base Template to create a complete project at once when the Base Template is linked to project.
