If you are not using Project Online or Microsoft Project Server, you would need to create a shared resource pool file. In that file, you would need to add the custom Outline Code field, along with all of your resources. Hope this helps.

You could create a custom resource Outline Code field this purpose. When you are creating the new Outline Code field, but sure to build the Code Mask to describe the levels of indenture in the Outline Code field. After doing this, you can enter the values in the list and indent the relevant items one or more levels to show groups and subgroups. Hope this helps.

- Hello Dale,
I tried your proposal . It is works and it is simple fo a single project.
In case we have a grandparent project that include thres projects (by subprojects) and each of them includes additional subprojects, with separate resource management, is it possible? Or Do we need to move to a global resources management and introduce the custom resource outline code at global level?
