Adding members to projects

You can use the Lifecycle Project Administration user interface to add users as members to all of the project areas that belong to a lifecycle project.

Before you begin

You must have JazzProjectAdmins or JazzAdmins repository group permissions, and the Jazz® Team Server must be running. See Accessing the Lifecycle Project Administration user interface. The users that you add must exist in the Jazz Team Server repository.

About this task

In the Lifecycle Project Administration user interface, you can add members to projects more efficiently than by adding them to each project area in separate operations. When you add a user to a lifecycle project, the user is added to each project area in the lifecycle project. The user is automatically assigned to the default process role in each project area. The user interface lets you assign additional roles to users.

Procedure

  1. In the user interface, click the Members page.
  2. Click Add Member. Enter the name of a user, or click Show All to see all users in the repository. Select the user from the Matching users list and click Add or Add & Close Click Save.
    An entry for the user appears in the Member Preview section. The entry indicates which project areas the user can be added to. For example, in the figure below, the user named bill is to be added to project areas in the Engineering Workflow Management , Engineering Test Management, and Requirements Management applications.
    The image is a screen capture of the Member Preview section of the user interface. The Member Preview section is a table that includes Name, User ID, CCM, QM, RM, and Status column headings. The CCM, QM, and Engineering Requirements Management DOORS Next cells contain check marks, which indicate that the user is to be added to project areas in all three applications.
  3. Click Save to save the changes to both the lifecycle project and the project areas.

Results

The user is added as a member of the lifecycle project and each of the project areas that belong to the lifecycle project.

What to do next

After you add a user to the lifecycle project, you must assign process roles to the user in each of the project areas so that the user has the permissions to perform operations.
