ProjectView Roles and Permissions
ProjectView enables you to control who can see and update project information.
Visibility
Projects are visible to:
- members of groups assigned to the project
- the Project Contact
- Administrators
Anyone with an active Workspace account can see any project that is configured to be visible to the General Membership.
Project details and the time line, including all project activities, can be seen by anyone who can see the project. Contributions from groups, including documents, calendar events, action items, and ballots, are visible only to those with whom those items are already shared. In other words, if you can see a ballot in Groups, you will see that ballot when it appears in ProjectView. However, if you do not have access to view the ballot in Groups, you will not see it within ProjectView even if it is assigned to a project you can see.
Updating Projects and Project Activities
People directly assigned to the project, Administrators, and Group Chairs are able to update project information.
- Group Administrators: Group Administrators can add, edit, and delete all project information.
- Group Chairs: Group Chairs have the Manage Projects permission by default, which allows them to add new projects and update projects to which their group contributes.
Note: Group Administrators and Super Admins can assign the Manage Projects permission to other group roles using the Manage Group Roles page. - Project Contact: A Project Contact can be assigned to each project. This individual can then change the project details (such as the progress report, estimated end date, and percent complete information) and manage the project time line.
- Project Activity Owners: People assigned directly to a Project Activity can update that Project Activity's information and mark it complete. The Group Chair of a group assigned to a Project Activity can also update the Project Activity.
