When you recognize that projects create things that currently don't exist or they modify what does exist one can readily understand that during a project differences will undoubtedly arise. The most effective way to resolve these differences is to document key elements of the project, share, collaborate, come to consensus, and continuously update the document, that is. the project plan.
3. Open the Project Plan
Project-Assistant provides a project plan feature. Open the project and select the second icon from the top of the left navigation bar.
The starting elements included in the plan will be dependent on the template used to create the project.
Customize the elements to meet your project's needs.
