You can easily create new tasks using the New Tasks button in the New group of the Home ribbon in Microsoft Outlook 2013's Tasks pane. While Outlook does not provide any native sub-task features, you can apply a workaround using individual task attachments within other tasks. You can create new tasks for each item you wanted to include as a sub-task, and then use the Outlook Item command on the Insert ribbon to attach shortcuts to your other tasks -- effectively using them as sub-tasks.
