We are suggesting a new feature for DOCS and Project Administration,

Make platform flexible while keeping the folder rights granted.

Avoid user mistakes.

Keep data structured.

 

 

This feature suggest that within the project template, or with a project admin decision,  grant a project member with a tool to add new members to the project.

The new team member gets an invitation to the project with their "default role".

This way folder permition right is kept safe.

 

 

This way for example we can create workflow like below:

 

We want user Group A (sales person) to have the right to "create a project"

Team Leaders of teams A-B-C-D will be auto assigned to this project with a right to assign add members for purposes like: distributing the job to their team or include a client, adding a subcontractor etc.

 

    - they can only add team members/company members with their default role. 

 

There can be an approval flow with another tool to another user. EX: 5 users has the right to add new members and another member can have the right to approve.

 

 

they will have no other extra rights then above speciefied like having access to all folders, edit folder rights etc.

this new tool should be added next to its role. to be more specific: they will have the folder rights etc coming from their role, with this new tool, they will be able to add another member. nothing more.

 

 

We dont want anybody to change the role of a member or give any access to any folder than templete specified.

Only Account Admins or Project Admin will have this controls.

 

Additionally as an option to developer, this feature can be achieved by creating a project admin role with reduced rights.

Hi @cem_acikada 

 

For a user to be able to add members to a project it needs to be a project admin.

Being a project admin it will have full access to be project.

 

There is no way to set the kind of restrictions that you are aiming.

 

If you want to limit what team leaders can do my suggestion is the following:

-The project is created by the account admin.

-Team leaders have edit permissions to their teams folder.

The project still needs to be created by an account admin, and adding members also needs to be done by an account admin.
