         <SectionTitle>Main Project</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>A main project is a
		  separate project that is made up of several subprojects. Main projects and
		  subprojects are both defined as projects. A main project acts as the driver for
		  the planning of its subprojects or as the aggregate for the financial results
		  of the subprojects. Recording a project structure using main projects and
		  subprojects is especially important for extensive projects in an
		  engineering-to-order situation. For main projects, only a limited number of
		  project control functions is feasible.</Paragraph>
      </GeneralSection>
      <GeneralSection>
         <SectionTitle>Sub Project</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>A subproject is part
		  of a main project. The <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#NetworPlanni_ti" role="glossary">network</Link> planning for the subproject is
		  derived from the planning for the main project. Several parameters can be
		  defined at main project level for a subproject. The project control functions
		  for a subproject are also applicable for the single project.</Paragraph>
      </GeneralSection>
      <GeneralSection>
         <SectionTitle>Single Project</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>A single project is a
		  separate project that is not divided into several subprojects.</Paragraph>
      </GeneralSection>
      <GeneralSection>
         <SectionTitle>Budget</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>A budget is used for
		  planning and estimating, not for production execution.</Paragraph>
