# Concepts

> Projects, work orders, and tasks

### Projects

A project is a piece of work with a set scope, timeframe, and budget. A project can be internal or for a customer.

Projects are broken down into manageable chunks called [Work Orders](#work-orders). Each work order can be further broken down into [Tasks](#tasks).

The only information needed to create a project in Idalia is a name. Everything else is optional, but recommended:

* Unique reference code
* Customer
* Status (e.g. Lead, In Progress, Completed)
* Start & end dates

### Work orders

Work orders are the individual tasks that make up a project. They are used to track the progress of each task, and the resources required to complete it.

### Tasks

Tasks are the individual tasks that make up a project. They are used to track the progress of each task, and the resources required to complete it.
