Creating a subsite
SharePoint lets you create subsites under existing sites. Subsites are useful when you want to organize content through a subset of lists, libraries, or pages but the audience that will have access to this content is the same as or a subset of the users of the parent site. For example, a large organization might have a site for the HR department, and they are likely to have a payroll subsite within it for a small set of members that help manage the organization’s payroll.
This recipe shows you how to create a subsite using the modern team site template.
