# 🧩 Subitems Sync with Same Item Multiple Boards

#  What Does This Feature Do?

The Same Item Multiple Boards (SIMB) app doesn’t just sync items anymore — it also **syncs their subitems**, making cross-board collaboration even smoother. 
Whenever a synced item contains subitems, those subitems will:

* ✨ Automatically appear on all boards where the parent item exists
* 🔄 Stay fully synced across boards
* 📝 Sync their updates, statuses, and supported column values
* 🧭 Give you a unified view, no matter which board you open


# 💡 Why This Matters

Subitems are often used to track:
* Task checklists
* Deliverables inside a project
* Steps within a workflow
* Dependencies
* Technical subtasks
* Team responsibilities


Before, these details stayed on a single board.
Now, **teams across boards stay aligned** because each subitem moves and updates together with its parent item.
This means:

* No more missing steps
* No more duplicated subtasks
* No more “Wait, where’s the checklist?” moments

# 🚀 How Subitem Syncing Works

Here’s what you can expect when using subitems with SIMB:

### 🔁 1. Subitems sync automatically
If an item exists on multiple boards through SIMB, any subitem you add will instantly appear on all connected boards.


### 📝 2. Updates sync across all boards
Posting an update inside a subitem?
Your message will appear on the same subitem in every board.


### 🧩 3. Supported columns sync too
SIMB syncs most standard column types for subitems, including:
* Status
* Text
* Long text
* People
* Date
* Dropdown
* Numbers
* Rating
* Email & Phone
* File
* Timeline
* Link
* And of course… updates!

⚠️ *Note: Special columns like Mirror, Formula, or Connected Boards are not supported in subitem syncing.*

### 📌 4. No setup needed
This feature is **automatically included** in every SIMB installation.
There is nothing you need to enable—subitems just sync out of the box.

# 🎯 Example Workflow
Let’s say you have:
* **Board A:** “Product Roadmap”
* **Board B:** “Engineering Sprint”
You sync the same feature request item to both boards.
Inside it, you add subitems for:
* UX design draft
* API endpoint
* QA checklist
Thanks to SIMB:
* All 3 subitems instantly appear on both boards
* Updating status on “API endpoint” in Board B updates it in Board A
* Comments on “QA checklist” sync everywhere
Everyone stays aligned—even across multiple teams.

# 🧠 Quick Steps (Guided Summary)
1. Add or open a synced item ✔
2. Create a subitem → it appears on all boards ✔
3. Update the subitem → it syncs across boards ✔
4. Post updates → they sync too ✔
That’s all! No extra configuration required.
