When you first assign a project to a user, the user has access to all project features. As a result, the user can perform all operations on a project such as editing WBS information and changing estimates. You can restrict a user's access to any part of a project, and consequently limit what the user is able to view and change.
You restrict access to the project features using the Project Features dialog box, or by assigning a Feature Equivalent user to the project.
To restrict a user's access to project features, complete the following steps:
Select a project and do one of the following:
Click Project Features
Click Tools » Project Features
MPM displays the Project Features dialog box.
Select the features you want the user to have access to. The Project Features dialog box works in the same way as other hierarchy dialog boxes in MPM.
Items preceded by a sign can be expanded by clicking on the sign.
Items preceded by a sign can be collapsed by clicking on the sign.
Only items with check marks are selected.
If a collapsed item is selected, its children are included in the selection.
If an expanded item is selected, its children are not automatically included. They must be selected individually.
To save the selections, choose OK.
