Nesting schedule membership
When you create nested schedules, the following rules for schedules, subschedules, and memberships apply:
- The schedule membership (Schedule→Schedule Membership) displayed for the master schedule contains only the members added to the master schedule. The membership in the master schedule does not include members from subschedules.
- The schedule membership displayed for a subschedule contains only the members added to that subschedule. Membership in a subschedule does not include members from the master schedule or other subschedules.
- If you add members to the master schedule, they are added only as members of the master schedule and can be assigned to tasks only in the master schedule.
- If you add members to a subschedule, they are added only as members of the subschedule and can be assigned tasks only in the subschedule.
- Members added or removed from the master schedule or subschedules do not affect the membership in the other schedules.
Example
- Three normal schedules S1, S2, and S3 each have their own membership and tasks.
- Schedules S1 and S2 are inserted into schedule S3. Schedules S1 and S2 become subschedules and schedule S3 becomes the master schedule.
- After inserting S1 and S2 into S3, each schedule retains its own original membership and task assignments — nesting does not merge membership lists.
