A Project Level Group Permissions Template provides an alternative method for assigning permissions to groups at the project level to reduce administrative overhead.
Note: The Project Permissions in the Template are not assigned to a Group until you add the Group to a Project. If you update permissions or members to the Group with a project template you need to re-add the Group to the Project.
You must have the “Manage User and Group Security” permission to manage groups.
Adding Groups
- Select the Admin tab.
- Double click on the Groups folder in the left hand menu.
- Select the Add button.
- Supply a name and description of the Group.
