The Allow PM to Give Certain Rights modification allows the project manager to delegate rights (chosen by the administrator on the PM Rights object) on his or her projects. This modification eliminates the need for project managers to request additional rights through the PMO/management and simplifies the entire process for everyone involved. The system administrator is able to customize the PM Rights object to pick which rights should be granted to users by the process. The process begins when a change is made on the newly created “Grant / Revoke” field on the project object. The process will then grant or revoke (depending on what option is selected) any rights listed in the PM Rights object to the user in the “Assign PM Rights” field on the project object. -
