Opening Projects or Templates in the EPS

While viewing the EPS, it is also possible to designate one or more projects or a single template as open. When you later navigate to other pages in the Projects section, such as the Activities page, these projects or the designated template will already be open so you can begin viewing or modifying them.

To open projects or templates from the EPS:

  1. On the  Navigation Menu, expand  Projects and click EPS.
  2. On the EPS page:
    1. Select a project, template, or EPS element to open.
    2. Click Open and select Project or Project .

Tip

  • You can also open a project directly to the Activities page by clicking the hyperlink in the ID or Name column.
  • If you select to open an EPS, all the projects contained in that EPS will open.
  • You can open more than one project. Use Shift+click or Ctrl+click to select all the items you want to open.
  • You cannot open a template in combination with any other item.
  • To close a project, right-click the project you want to close and select Close Project. To close all of the open projects and templates on the EPS page, right-click and select Close All.
  • When a project is open, it will display an open folder indicator "". When a project is closed, its corresponding folder indicator will also be closed "". Templates also exhibit this change in their visual indicators.
  • The Team Usage, Documents, and Issues pages are not available when you open a template.
