How to configure Project Security (TopTeam Web)

Overview

When you create a new project in TopTeam, by default the Project Security restrictions are OFF. In other words, all project Team Members are able to edit any record within that project until you “Turn Project Security ON”. Once you turn ON Project Security, you need to grant Roles to Team Members or else they will not be able to perform any editing functions on the project. i.e. their access will become “read-only”.

This article describes the steps for turning ON Project Security.

NOTE: Users who are not Team Members in a project can NEVER access project data whether the Project Security is turned ON or NOT.

Alternately, you can configure Project security using TopTeam Desktop App. For more information, refer to the article Configuring TopTeam Security step-by-step.
