Controlling access and activity
The type of functionality available to each user is dependant upon the licence type and the permissions they have been allocated on a project and can even be adjusted down to specific documents if required.
It is up to you how to apply permissions either keep it simple or create lots of custom permissions groups to have fine control over different users. Each new project comes with four standard permissions groups; No Access, Read, Read/Write and Modify. Users start in No Access and you can move them into the other groups so they can get increasing access to capability on the project.
This simple mode works well off the shelf for internal projects and can be managed by the PM once they have been given their ‘Modify’ permission. If you want to refine access for these user groups you can move default permissions for a group on a document by document basis so giving the ‘Read’ group no access to project finances but read/write access to the risk register. To extend this further you can create an unlimited number of custom permissions groups for particular users within a project e.g. Customer and then grant permissions.
The permissions control not just the ability to chance files and documents or add new material but to search, report , set up notifications, undertake assurance activities and much more.
Additional top level permissions flags control access to portfolios and administration capabilities like creating projects, new users or allocating licences to user accounts.
