2.5.4.2.2 Sub-Task (Child Task)

A Subtask is also called Child Task. Creating a subtask can be helpful when on a project there are some major tasks but within that tasks, few of the small tasks which need to be dealt with a different approach/team. Subtasks support people when they need to delegate parts of their assigned work to other people, but want to keep control over the overall result. They can also be used to invoke supporting services to help people accomplish the tasks that they are working on.
In UNItekTIME, in order to create a Sub-Task, a manager/administrator first make the task a Parent. The good thing about UNItekTIME is, there are no restrictions in how many levels of subtask manager/administrator create so any task can be a parent even the subtask so that further subtasks can be created in it. A manager/administrator can create a new task as a parent or make existing task parent.
