How do I set up Project Server security to allow team members to see the projects to which they are assigned in the Project Center page in Project Web Access?



Microsoft Project Server Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Overview



Microsoft Project Server Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Details

Background Information

The default permissions in Project Server 2002 and 2003 allow users in the Team Members group to access the Project Center page, but do not allow them to see any Project Center views or detailed Project views. Therefore, the Project Server administrator simply needs to select at least one Project Center view and at least one detailed Project view in the My Tasks category to solve this problem.

Resolution for Project Server 2002 and 2003

The Project Server administrator should complete the following steps:

1.  Log into Project Web Access with administrator permissions.

2.  Click Admin - Manage security.

3.  Select the My Tasks category and click the Modify Category button.

4.  In the Projects section, select one or more Project views that you wish Team Members to see.

5.  In the Project Center Views section, select one or more Project Center views that you wish Team Members to see.

6.  Click the Save Changes button.

Resolution for Project Server 2007

The default permissions in Project Server 2007 allow users in the Team Members group to access the Project Center page. From the Project Center page, team members can see only one default Project Center view (the Summary view) and only one detailed Project view (the Tasks Summary view). If your organization needs team members to see additional Project Center views or detailed Project views, the Project Server administrator should complete the following steps:

1.  Log into Project Web Access with administrator permissions.

2.  Click Server Settings - Manage Categories.

3.  Click the link for the My Tasks category to open the Category for editing.

4.  Expand the Views - Add to Category section, and then select one or more Project views and Project Center views.

5.  Click the Save button.
