Projects

Projects are the central point in aheadOffice. Each project defines a workflow of your company. It can be a website creation as well as preparations for a corporative event, or paper work with a consulting agency, or advertising campaign of your product. After creating a project you can add tasks, assign people, create reports and invoices, discuss and collaborate in the scope of a project. Besides the common properties like title, description, status and others projects, in aheadOffice have:

Roles and Rates
Unlike the global roles and rates, Project roles and rates are limited to the project in which they are defined, so they are visible and accessible under the scope of their project. Roles can be project-specific, defined for a project only, or redefine global roles for a specific project for the purpose of changing their rate.

Project group
Project group is created automatically containing the user accounts and user groups that are assigned to the project. This group is created for the purpose of easier access to project teams. Don't mix user groups and project groups.

Only people participating in a project (the project group) have access to the project. All other cannot even see the project, except account managers.
