Adding A Project
44. 6. Managing Projects
Projects are run with a focus on a specific issue, while Organisations are based on a
sector in which they operate.
You can carry out sales activity with an organisation as you are selling to
them, whereas with a project you do not carry out sales activity to the Project but rather
to the organisations you are working with to run the project.
You can create TNs for both Organisations and Projects however, the TNs in the
Projects should be those that are not going to be carried out in a specific organisation
whereas TNs in Organisations are attached to the organisations and the EP will be
working there.
Other points to note:
-There can be TNs in Organisations that are GCDP!
-You can connect organisations to the Projects.

Organisation
