Overview

Projects are the heart of OnRamp — they hold the tasks, modules, and timelines you’ll use to onboard customers. When creating your first project, you can either start with a blank project or, if you already have Playbooks, launch from one of those templates.


Before You Begin

  • Make sure you can log in to OnRamp.

  • Have a project name in mind.


Steps to Create Your First Project

  1. From the left-hand menu, click Projects.

  2. Select Create Project.

  3. Choose how you want to start:

    • From a Playbook → Launch a project with a predefined template (if available).

    • Blank Project → Build a project from scratch.

  4. Enter your Project Name.

  5. Add the Customer you want to associate with the project.

  6. Set the Start Date and End Date.

  7. Click Create.

Now you’ll have a new project shell — let’s add to it!


Add Modules, Tasks, and Subtasks

  1. Inside your project, click + Add Module.

    • A Module is a section of work (e.g., “Kickoff,” “Training,” or “Launch”).

  2. Inside the module, click + Add Task.

    • Give the task a name, assign it to a role, and set a due date.

  3. Add as many Modules, Tasks, and Subtasks as needed to build your onboarding process.

    • Subtasks can be added from within a task to create detailed step-by-step instructions.

💡 Pro tip: Subtasks are perfect for instructions that repeat often, like collecting customer files or running a kickoff call checklist.


Next Steps

  • Track progress on the dashboard as tasks are completed.

✅ Congrats — you’ve created your first project. From here, you can also save it as a Playbook to reuse later.
