Packages are created from the Master Playbook to reduce the amount of effort required to set up the desired process and to efficiently and effectively manage a Target, Program, or Due Diligence Request List.
Packages are created by the Administrator and are a subset of the Master Playbook (Activity Map) or the Due Diligence Request List.
The Master Playbook/Activity Map is comprised of the six (6) activity levels: Project, Workstream, SubWorkstream, Milestone, Task, and SubTask that you plan to use repeatedly for Targets and/or Program management. They are often used to support different deal DNA types and greatly reduce the amount of effort required to set up your desired process.
The Due Diligence/Request List is comprised of three (3) levels: Function, Category, and Request List.
Note: The names of the activity level within your tenant may differ from the ones described above, as the Administrator may have changed their names during Onboarding.
