Organizing Activities into a Hierarchy or Cost Breakdown Structure

You can drag and drop any activity or row within the Activities view to create a cost breakdown structure or other hierarchy within the cost estimate.

You can create any number of hierarchical levels or groups in the cost estimate. Any time an activity, or group of activities, is dragged onto another row, it becomes a child of that row.

Example of Creating a Hierarchy

This is an example of organizing activities into a hierarchy structure.

1. New Activity 5 is dragged onto the row titled Parent 2. This makes New Activity 5 a child of Parent 2.

   

2. New Activity 5 becomes a parent activity when we add a new activity (New Activity 6) and drag it onto the New Activity 5 row.
