During the configuration of a Primavera P6 EPPM system, one of the main tasks is to develop the access privileges for all the different users. Users in Primavera P6 require two different profiles to control what they can do in the system; a Global Security Profile and a Project Security Profile.
Profile Options
The options are numerous with 64 global security options and 54 project security options to choose from. Primavera P6 ships with a number of pre-configured profiles including Project Manager, Resource Manager, Read-only rights and so on. However, you will likely need to modify these existing profiles or add new ones to the system to satisfy the needs of your particular organization.
Getting the settings just right for the different roles can be time-consuming and often requires a little trial and error before everyone is happy. To assist you in designing each of the global and project security profiles you need, we’ve created a work sheet that lists all the global and project settings.
