In Microsoft Project Web App, a phase represents a collection of stages grouped to identify a common set of activities in the project life cycle. Examples of phases are project creation, project selection, and project management. Phases have no direct technical effect on the behavior of an Enterprise Project Type. That is, changing the order of phases does not affect how the system reacts. The main purpose of Demand Management phases is to provide a smoother user experience where users have the option of organizing stages into logical groups.
