advices on implementing reserve management solution

Hello !

After a bit of research, I ended up installing this promising tool, in order to manage a list of objectives and their related actions for our association PGEM de Moorea

Being a bit at a loss as to how to tackle the project with this program, I would gladly hear some words of advice... Any hint, however small, will be appreciated

1 - The idea is to keep track of organised goals and the set of actions towards them, monitoring many diverse projects and sub-projects related to managing a protected marine area.

I made a document with the following structure :
1 Main objective
1.1 Sub-objective
1.1.1 Action towards sub ojective
111.1 sub-action towards action

Basically, each xxx.x sub-action is a project in itself, with varying degrees of complexity, and the whole project should grow over time. I attached a short version of the document (in French, but visual enough)


2 - Do you think Projectorria is a good tool for that, or see a better fit open source project ?

3 - would you think of a particular way to (or no to) implement this solution ?

Well, I will now try to find out by testing it !
Cheers...

Thanks a lot for your reply !

1 - I think I will get xxx.x actions to be sub-sub-sub projects of my main objectives, as it shows nicely on the wbs similarly as my main document, and that each of those actions means quite a bit of work and is a real 'project' by itself. Wondering, though... if needed, can I reorder the wbs ?

2 - Now I think I will have to undestand better the differences between activities and actions at the software level... For example, one of our actions(project) have a planning already associated, with different key events distributed on a 2 years period. To see that planning visually, should I create as many activities or actions under that project as there are key dates ? Or should I use Jalons for that ?

well, back to testing, sounds really promising

Great !

thank you Babynus for the helpful clarifications.
the reordering was a bit tricky, but it really is easy !

1 - Solution is taking shape, I am crafting a planning.
I have some milestones that moved from their respective validated dates to today's date location after I pressed a button 'compute activity planning' (arghhh, why !) So I have milestones with the planned date set to today and could not find yet how to change...

2 - I saw a csv file to import activities, is it possible to use a similar one to populate my 200 projects and subprojects lines ?

well thanks again for your quick answers and time spent helping out
