Additional Template Details

• This project management framework is comprised of two master databases, each connected to the other via circular referencing
  • Master Projects Database
  • Master Notes Database
• Items in the Master Notes Database should be tagged with relevant projects from the Master Projects Database
  • A project must be created before notes can be linked to it
  • Notes can be connected to multiple projects
• When viewing one database, you can jump to its connected counterpart(s) by clicking the associated page link(s)
• The button automations are not required, but do help eliminate friction in creating new projects/notes
  • These buttons can be placed anywhere in your Notion workspace so long as the database connections are maintained in each one’s settings
  • If you’d rather not use these buttons, you can also just add new line items to each database directly
• Each Project Template page includes a filtered view of the Master Notes Database—this is to help ensure only relevant notes are listed on each project’s page
• The pages within the Projects by Area section simply include filtered views of the Master Project Database
• I’ve adapted this framework from the one Jeff Su outlines in this video
