Organize your projects !

As a project manager, I need to organize my level of data linked to a project.
I wanted to share the way I organize my own projects, that I created within 4 level

❗ This is my own organization that I'd like to share. For sure there are planty of other one, but I think this is a good compromise between reasonnable depth and good details

Here are the 4 levels used in my own organization

Projects
At this stage, we are talking about major Project. For our example, we could take two main projects, given a global point of view. They will have, keypoint and tasks linked to them.
🏠 Project A : Build my House
🌐 Project B : Create a coda blog
Keypoints
For each project, I define a bunch of Keypoints. Those are not tasks, but main subjects related to my project, that will have tasks related to. In our example, it can be :
Project A : Planning, Contractor, Drawings, Supplies, etc...
Project B : Idea, contact & partnershipt, content writing, etc...
Tasks
As mentionned, we may have several Tasks in project, that all need to be related to a keypoint.
For example : Project A > Keypoint Contractor > Task1 : Hire civil work company, Task2 : Say thank you to electric worker that saved my house from burning

Checklist
Finally, at this very ending stage, a task may involve several Subtasks to be completed. For this, I use I would thank
, one the greatest coda champion ! I use canvas column to create a subchecklist, and to track it, in order to know at which point a task is ready to be completed. Thanks Paul for help to get informations about checklist inside canvas
There are no rows in this table
