Create New Workspace Member
|
A project manager with
the permission can add a workspace member who is not already an active enterprise member. Doing this creates (or activates) that user in the enterprise, as well as adding them to the workspace.
Note: Text fields
do not support hyperlinks or other HTML formatting. Examples of text fields
are user First Name,
Last Name and Email.
TO create a NEW workspace member:
- In the workspace
to which you want to add the new member, open the Members list.
- On the Members list toolbar, click Create User.
Note: The Create User option only displays if you have the permission.
- Type the name of the new
user in the First Name and Last Name text boxes.
Note: Values in these fields may be overwritten, if you are adding a user who was previously deactivated in the enterprise. For more information, see Creating New Workspace Members - Overview.
- Type the email address
for the user in the Email text
box.
- From the Enterprise
Role list, select the enterprise role for the new user.
- From the Resource
Type list, select the resource type for the new user. Assigning
a resource type is important for resource planning purposes, and for cost
and revenue estimates.
- To add the new user to
existing workspace workgroups, select the relevant workgroup check boxes.
If workgroups have not been set up for this workspace, no check boxes display.
For more information about workgroups, see Creating
a Workspace Workgroup.
- To send an invitation notification
to the new user, select Active.
If the workspace is still in the planning stage and you do not want to notify
workspace members immediately, select Inactive.
Members can be activated at any time. For more information, see Activating
Workspace Members.
- Select the user's primary
workspace role from the Default Role
list.
Note: A workspace role is not the same as an enterprise role.
The workspace role determines what actions and applications a user has access
to within the specific workspace.
- If you want to add additional
roles to the user, select those roles from the Additional
Roles options.
Workspace role permissions are cumulative. If you add a role that has
permissions above and beyond that of the user's Default Role, the user
will have the combination of permissions from both roles.
This is useful if you have a user whose default role is one with few
permissions (such as Guest), but who needs special access to one of the
workspace applications. In this case your administrator would create
a custom role that allowed access to the application, and you would assign
that role to the user in this step. For example, if a user outside your organization was going
to be doing work on your workspace and needed to manage documents, an administrator could
create a new role called Document Manager that gave this permission. That role would appear in the
list of additional roles.
- For workspaces with external
billing enabled, to assign a workspace-level external billing rate, click
the Billing Rate Selector icon
and select a predefined rate,
or type a rate value in the External
Rate box.
Any rate you assign here is limited to this member and this workspace.
If the member is also a member of another workspace, this rate does not
apply to that workspace. If you do not assign a workspace-level external rate,
the member's rate will be inherited based on the rate inheritance rules.
For more information, see Billing
Rate Inheritance Overview.
Note: If external billing is not enabled for the workspace, you
do not have this option.
- If you do not want an invitation
notification sent to the new user, in the Notifications Settings section,
select Do not send notification to new
user.
Note: Selecting this option only suppresses the initial invitation
notification. For details about notifications and managing them, see
Notifications Overview.
- Click Save
& Close to create the new enterprise user and add them as a member
of the workspace, click Save & Add
Another to create the new user, add them as a workspace member,
and leave the window open so you can add another user, or Cancel
to close the window without creating the user.
