Viewing project schedules in PWA

L

Leo Roberts

Users are unable to view the detailed project schedules in project center
unless they have admin priveliges. They can view schedules where they are
not a resource on the schedule. Is there a way to set permissions so that
they can view all project schedules and not give them admin access?

No problem. You have a couple options.

#1: If you would like to give all team members access to view all projects
in the project center and in the project view, and would like all views in
these two pages available to them... Then
- Manage Users and Groups --> Groups
- Select "Team Member" group and choose "Modify Group"
- In the Categories section, add the "My Organization" category from the
list of available ones
- Select the "My Organization" category in the selected categories on the
right
- In the permissions section, set the "see projects in project center" and
"see projects in project views" permissions to Allowed
- Save your changes.

If you want to provide visibility into all projects, but specify a subset of
views on the project center or project pages then you will first need to
create a new category:
- Manage Security --> Categories --> Add Category
- Give it a meaningful name
- Add the "Team Members" group from the available list
- Select the Team Member group from the list on the right
- Allow the group to "See projects in project center" and "see projects in
project views"
- In the projects section, define the category to include all current and
future projects
- Select the subset of project views to include in the category
- Select the subset of project center views (farther down on page)

Good luck.
