In this topic:

Adding Subportfolios

The portfolios added to the current portfolio as subordinates are referred to as subportfolios or child portfolios. You may want to add subportfolios to a portfolio when the current portfolio is created by a higher-level organization manager targeted for higher functional or strategic needs.

1. In the portfolio page, click the Contents tab, Subportfolios section.

2. Click Add, and select the desired portfolios.

   You can select portfolios:

   • which have not yet been added as subportfolios to any portfolio, and
   • to which you have edit access.
3. Click OK.

The current portfolio could have parent portfolios and child portfolios, and its child portfolios may also have child portfolios. Cumulatively, it builds up a portfolio hierarchy in which the current portfolio may have parent portfolios or subportfolios at different higher or lower levels.

For details about portfolio hierarchy, see Portfolio Hierarchy.
