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 active for the Group until you add the Group to a Project. If you update template permissions, these will not be propagated to the project level unless you re-add the group to the project.

 

You must have the “Manage User and Group Security” permission to manage groups.

 

Adding Groups 

  1. Select the Admin tab.
  2. Double click on the Groups folder in the left hand menu.
  3. Select the Add button.
  4. Supply a name and description of the Group.

Assigning Project Template Permissions

    • A list of Project Permissions are displayed.
    • These permissions are the same permissions that are available for Projects. See the help topic Permissions  for more information on Project Permissions.

  2. Select the permissions you wish to assign to the group.


  3. Select the Assign Users tab.  Select the users you wish to add to this group.
  4. Select Save.

Assigning Group with Project Permissions Template to a Project
