How to organize subtasks in Open Atirum that depends on main tasks

There are some strict organization process in some corporations that need to respect some hierachy in the tasks organization, as an example I want to mention how AESCO a non profit organization that receives govement funds need to maintain the relationship betweeen the sucessful and promised goals. The reason of this is that all the reports that justify the correct use of the funds must match the expected results required by the goverment institutions.

We have five levels to organize the activity when Open Atrium only provides three: groups, case projects and case tasks, and here is when complexity appears.

At AESCO projects we need to divide the organization in:

  • Departments that is done using Groups
  • Projects or Programs that is done using Case Tracker Projects and Books
  • Then each project have Goals and here we cannot fill this requirement.
  • Each Goal is normally chained to some kind of Activities many of them are events organization.
  • The Activities has many tasks that could be really big and probably sometimes we need to divide in subtasks.
