So whats project access?
Project access is a user's access to projects in Matrak — whether that's a team member within your organisation, or external companies.
Matrak's project access feature allows project managers to grant or restrict access to users on specific projects, as well as to specific data within those projects. This way, managers can ensure that each user has access only to the information and features that are relevant to their role, while also maintaining strict control over the data.
Note: This feature is only available for users with Admin access only.
The access options are below:
Admin - can change access levels for others in the company and can download reports
Edit - can edit materials and update materials on a project
View - can only see the project with no ability to make changes
No Access - are not able to access the project
