About Workspace Roles |
Every PPM user is given one (and only one) enterprise role when they are added to PPM. For more information about enterprise profiles and roles, see About User Profiles and Enterprise Roles.
In addition to the single enterprise role each PPM user is assigned, they are assigned separate workspace roles for each workspace they are a member of. Workspace roles are specific to individual workspaces and they define the actions that workspace members can perform in a workspace.
A user's workspace role is assigned by the person (usually the project manager) who adds the user to a workspace as a team member. Workspace roles do not have to match a user's enterprise role, and they can differ from workspace to workspace depending on the user's responsibilities in each workspace.
Each default workspace type includes these workspace roles:
To see a list of default roles and permissions associated with each workspace type, see Default Workspace Roles and Permissions. The administrator can change the permissions associated with each default role.
Unlike with enterprise roles, a workspace role can have additional workspace-level permissions added to it. For more information, see Editing Workspace Roles. Administrators can also create new roles with customized sets of permissions to reflect roles within their particular organization. For details, see Creating a Custom Workspace Role.
