How to use the Grant Access feature

Granting a user broad access allows the grantee to access all of your projects – across all programs to which they have access – as if they were their own. If the grantee has a role that allows them to edit project data, they will be able to view and edit data in all of your projects in the program where they have that role. A broad access grant overrides any individual project access grants.
 
The Grant Access dialog allows you to share access to your projects with co-workers or other stakeholders who are registered users of PowerClerk. To Grant Access to a user, please enter the user’s email address and click the Grant Access button:

 

Grant Access dialog

You can also delete users you had granted access to by clicking on Delete:

 

Delete Access

Figure 5: Delete Access

 

Note: Grant Access will share all projects with the recipient.  Individual project access can also be granted to others on the project detail page, in View/Edit mode.


On the Grant Access page you can also see the PowerClerk users who have granted you broad access to all their projects across all PowerClerk programs:
