In the Team section of a project, users can toggle to Role View. Role View groups the project’s Team members by role and allows you to edit users’ roles and permissions.

Role Groups

In Role View, role headers are arranged by Sort Order as chosen in the Roles Setup Advanced tool. Users assigned to a role appear in the corresponding role group. Each user’s permission will appear by their name.

No Role Group

If a user in the project has no roles, they will appear in the No Roles group. No Role is the last role header listed, and it includes all users who have been added to the project but have not been assigned roles.

Role Position Assignment

In each role group, users appear in their role position assignment order. The user in the first position, marked with a 1st badge, will receive all auto-tasks assigned to that role. For example, in the instance below, if an auto-task is assigned to the Attorney role, Eric would be assigned that task.

If Eric is removed from the Attorney role, or another user is moved to the first position for this role group, then the new first user would be assigned Attorney autotasks going forward.

Users in the first position can also be reported on and shown in a project’s vitals. 

Taskflow Order

Taskflow assignment is wholly dependent on a user’s position in the role group. Users’ team permissions, Admin status, and primary status no longer affect taskflow assignments. Autotasks will always be assigned to the user in the first position of a role group, who is marked by a green first flag.

If a user listed third in a role group is moved to the first position, for example, that user would now receive all auto-tasks assigned to the role, even if other users with the role have Admin permissions and they do not.

How to Move Positions

Users can be moved within a role group, but not across role groups, since a user may appear in multiple role groups.

Project Admins can move a user’s position in a role group by hovering over the dotted line at the left of the user and dragging and dropping the user to the new position. Users can also quickly be moved into the first position by clicking on the empty badge icon at the right of the user. 

Any user with the green 1st badge to the right of their name is in the first position to their role group, meaning that they will be assigned any autotasks for that role on that project.

Filter

Use the Role View filter to search the entire list of users by users’ names or permissions. To filter by permission, use any of these special terms:

• Admin
• follower
• collaborator
• guest

You can use the filter to search for users, even if users are hidden in collapsed groups. When filtered, a role group will only display filtered users who may or may not be the actual first-listed user in that role group.

Expand and Collapse

Click the plus/minus symbol to the right of the role header to collapse and expand the role list. You can also collapse or expand all roles at once by clicking the Collapse All/Expand All button along the top of the page.

Adding and Removing Roles and Permissions

Role and permissions can be added by a Project Admin in a user’s card. Click on a user to open the user card on the right side of the screen. Once selected, all of the user’s role assignments will be highlighted. 

Each user card displays the user’s name, username, and email. Underneath, you will see a toggle for Admin permissions and for team status.

Roles and permissions can be added and removed individually in Role View. To assign a role for more than one project, use the Org > Members tool. The Mass Update Permissions tool can also be used to assign project roles and role assignment position for all existing projects or for a subset of existing projects.

Roles

Change the user’s roles by clicking select roles, typing to filter roles in the list, and selecting a role. The role tag will appear in the select roles box.

Remove roles by clicking on the “x” next to a role tag. As you add and remove roles, you will see the change reflected in the roles lists to the left.

Admin and Team Status

Change the user’s permissions by toggling project Admin status on or off, or by selecting the desired team status.

When you change Admin and Team status, the taskflow assignment order may also change. If you make a collaborator an Admin, for example, that Admin-collaborator will now be above a follower in the assignment order. This change will be reflected in the order of users in the roles lists on the left.

Guest users have the Share Project Sections button. Clicking this button will open the Share User Sections modal, where you will be able to choose the project sections that should be shared with this guest user. 

Adding and Removing Users

Invite a user using the + Invite button in the top righthand corner. In the modal, enter a user’s name, username, or email address and click invite.

To remove a user from the project, click on the user to open their user card and select Remove from Project at the bottom of the card. If a user is the only primary on a project, they will not be able to be removed until another primary has been assigned.
