Introduction

A project is a top-level container for organising phases and reports (which contain findings, assets, examples, and so on). It is a simple container, which allows for grouping multiple related phases together, organising long running or re-test phases, and managing client reports.

Access control

Certain users have default access to and the ability to create projects, while others need to be granted access. By default, the following users are able to access projects:

The project list can be accessed either from within a company or from the navigation menu 'Project" link. The list provides access to projects that the user has access to, and can be filtered as required.

The project view page gives an overview of the project and access to all of the phases and reports related to the project. For example:

The summary charts break down:
