Description

Rationale / Begründung

With this function it should be possible to create multiple subprojects (or child projects) from one parent project.

A principle investigator of a large project with multiple subprojects would like to create DMPs for all subprojects and send those projects to the PIs of each subproject. These DMPs contain all the same catalog and could therefore, for example, be created in a batch process step.
