Permissions @ PWA Root

S

Steven Douglass

The PS2007 web access "root" as I understand it is the "Home - Project Web
Access" page where the signed-in user sees links to tasks, timesheets, issues
and risks, etc that encompass information from ALL projects for which they
have been assigned. At the bottom of this page is a list of Project
Workspaces for which they have been assigned via project plans. The URL is
http://<servername>/PWA/default.aspx.

I am managing permissions to workspaces via project plans. This seems to
work with some caveats and I've posted questions on this topic but have not
yet received any replies. Anyway, that's another thread.

From what I understand \PWA is NOT a Project Workspace but is a Site (using
WSS 3.0 terminology) that can contain many workspaces beneath it. This Site
start page shows only information that a user can see based on their
permissions to workspaces/projects.

So, an executive (as part of the Executive PS2007 Group) would see links to
all project workspaces but have only read rights.
A team member would see links to ONLY project workspaces for which they have
been added to the team.

To recap the question; how are user rights at the ROOT \PWA Site page
handled? Who does it or what triggers it and when?
