French term or phrase: tâche sous tâche
My context which is just an item in a table:

Decoupage de l'activité "Recalage en Régé" en deux tâches sous tâche, ajout de la charge "suivi projet", erreur de calcul dans la somme par boucle moteur

Could it be translated as "task for task", please?

dependent task
Explanation:
or follow-up, consequent. Meaning that one of them depends on the other, follows on from the other's results. Or you could turn that around and say prerequisite for one of them.

Come to think of it, it is actually quite close to your "task for task" in meaning.
