Creating Projects
All users except collaborators can create projects.
Projects are one of the main ways to organize, manage, and report on work within Wrike. Use projects to manage a group of tasks that are part of a larger goal.
Projects enable you to track the status and due dates separately from your tasks while adding information directly to the project itself: project owner, start date, end dates, custom fields, plus any attachments or conversations that the project team will want to access.

You can start creating a new project in several ways:
-
Use the green + 1 in the top right of your workspace next to your profile picture, and select Project or Folder 2 from the drop-down.
Hover over the Projects and Folders title in the left-hand menu of a space and click the + 3 that appears.
-
Right-click a project or folder in the left-hand menu of a space, select Add folder or project 4, and choose Project 5 in the pop-up that opens.
