Licensing and restrictions
No special licensing or role is required. Any user can add or edit project teams. No checkboxes in the Modify User dialog box need to be marked, as shown here:
However, an administrator can configure each project so that only administrators can add, edit, and delete project team members. To do this, mark the Restrict Modification of Project Team checkbox in the Admin tab of the Edit Project Settings dialog box, as shown here:
Info Exchange configuration
Add the project and activity center to Info Exchange. See Make a Project and Its Activity Centers Available on Info Exchange for information on how to do this. After you add the project and activity center to Info Exchange, you must assign permission sets to internal and external users.
Assigning permission sets to internal and external users
Refer to the Project Center Administration Activity Center Permission Sets tab and Assign Permission Sets to Users topics for more information.
Team member access and visibility on Info Exchange
To give a project team member access to this project on Info Exchange, mark the Allow Web Access to This Project on Your Info Exchange Server checkbox in the Modify Project Team Member dialog box, as shown below.
The Member Visibility on Info Exchange setting determines which external project team members can see this project team member, and how much information they can see. This is important since some internal members such as partners or administrative staff may want to join the team but not allow external members to see their contact details on Info Exchange. Additionally, there may be external project team members you may want to hide from one another (such as competitors on a bid package you are working on).
Getting started
Add users to the project team so they have full access to the project. Go to the Project Team activity center and click either Add Team Members > From Contacts or Add Team Members > From Company from the Tasks panel depending on how you want to add team members to the project.
1 If the project is confidential, users will not be able to see it unless they are administrators or on the project team, depending on the confidentiality setting in the Edit Project Settings dialog box.
