Add project team members

By assigning project team members such as project team, project partners, customers etc., you are able to distribute the workload of the project to the co-workers and to inform project members which projects they are assigned to or following up its process. Your employees will know for which parts of the business they are responsible.

By setting up a project team, you define access permissions to the project.
