Use the Master Plan Framework to Develop Narratives
If you are creating Narratives for a set of plans, relying on the Master Plan format, begin in the Master Plan. Once global settings and content have been determined, you can move on to customizing a particular sub plan, as necessary.
Apply Global Narrative Settings and Content to Sub plans
All edits made, using menus on the Narratives > Settings tab, will apply to the sub plans; and these settings cannot be changed within the sub plan.The following elements may be cascaded to sub plans by using a Master Plan option, which will display where applicable and be checked by default:
- Content for each Narrative Template (e.g., Minorities/Women, IWD)
- Tags & Values
- Uploaded Documents that were added through [Manage Documents] (above)
Customize the Sub plan
Content, Tags & Values, and stored Documents may be changed while working in a sub plan, for the specific needs of that plan.Quick Reminder: If a sub plan setting (e.g., option, tag, content edit) applies to all sub plans, determine it within the Master Plan.
