Groups provide a way to better organize your users. They can be used for Project teams, can be assigned to all objects except tasks / milestones, and allow you to direct notes and send messages to more than one user at a time.
Please note: The administering of groups is only available for users with user management permission. |
Users can be organized by department, location, skill set, or any other way you see useful. A user is called a member when added to a group.
There are two ways how to add group members:
1. Globally: From System settings > Resources > Users and Groups
2. Per project: From each project’s Team page (You can reach that from the project outliner.)
