Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we finalise the project

Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

The link is a good summary of a WBS but ignores the PBS completely - there are differences!  The APM, UK recently published a good discussion paper on these two structures, my summary is in the PP Blog at http://www.planningplanet.com/blog/pbs-v-wbs-there-difference
