Getting Started
SmarTeam - Community Workspace introduces controlled levels of administration and membership that enable authorized members to work quickly and efficiently and allow them to concentrate on their main tasks - managing and securing product data no matter their location in the world at any moment in time.
When SmarTeam - Community Workspace is first installed, the System Owner assigns administration tasks and members, each with their own authorizations and access permissions.
Permissions are assigned to any member, who can be authorized to create communities (projects), folders and ultimately grant their own permissions to other members, depending on their needs.
By granting the correct authorizations and permissions, members are able to manage data added to a SmarTeam - Community Workspace Home community in a secure environment.
SmarTeam - Community Workspace supports three levels of administration privileges:
The System Owner has the highest privileges within SmarTeam - Community Workspace and can also assign other members as an equal system owner and community owner with equal authorizations.
A member assigned Create communities permission by a System Owner, and who creates a community, is defined as the Community Owner with authorizations and permissions for community members. (More than one member can be assigned as a Community Owner for the same community.)
Any member assigned permission to create folders automatically becomes the Folder Owner of any folder(s) that he/she creates. A Folder Owner controls access to all folders that he/she creates and can grant permissions to members according to their needs. Data objects are added to community folders and managed by members assigned the necessary permissions, such as adding objects, deleting objects, performing lifecycle operations, updating objects and more.
SmarTeam - Community Workspace uses a color code system for buttons that enable owners and members the ability to quickly identify different functions within SmarTeam - Community Workspace.
Note: Buttons are only enabled for members with the correct permissions.
