Permissions Question

Which permission(s) in a category do I need to modify to implicitly deny a
user from seeing Project details(tasks) in the Project View pane for projects
they are only members of.

Specifically, Project Managers, who are members of projects they don't own,
can see, open, & modify projects they are assigned tasks in.

Complete the following steps:

1. Log into Project Web Access with administrator permissions
2. Click Admin - Manage security
3. Select the My Projects category and click the Modify Category button
4. In the Projects section, DESELECT the "Allow users in this category to
view all projects in which they are a team member" option
5. Click the Save Changes button

Completing the above steps will prevent each project manager from seeing or
opening a project in which he/she is only a team member, either in Microsoft
Project Professional or in PWA. You must now modify the Project Managers
group by completing the following steps:

1. Click Admin - Modify users and groups
2. Click the Groups link in the sidepane
3. Select the Project Managers group and then click the Modify Group button
4. In the Categories section, select the My Tasks category in the Available
categories list on the left side of the page and then click the Add button
5. In the Categories section, now select the My Tasks category from the
list on the right
6. In the Permissions grid, set the "See Projects in Project Center" to
Allow
7. Click the Save Changes button

Completing the second set of steps will now allow project managers to view
in which they are only a team member in the Project Center page, but will
not allow them to view the projects in a detailed Project view. Hope this
helps.
