Hey there! I manage multiple projects at a time. As I was learning OmniPlan, I found it easiest to keep each project in one master project file, keeping each project as a top-level task. Now that I have more of a handle on it, though, I wanted to see if there’s a way to break these projects out to separate project files, bringing them all together with a dashboard.
My main challenge is that the resources (people!) pull from the same pool for each project I work on. While I realize a dashboard will track resources, what I worry about is having to update all of the resources in 5, 10, 15 and so on projects. Is there a good workaround for this? Or a workflow, rather, that I’m missing?
And also, best practices for breaking these out to multiple projects. Thank you!
@carltongibson Balancing resource loads across projects does require syncing your projects to a server repository hosted via an Omni Sync Server account (or another WebDAV server). That said, I think you should be able to continue to use iCloud to sync your projects across your devices, while using the collaboration action to sync resource loads between projects, although it has been a while since I’ve personally tested this workflow out myself!
