- Click the green Assign projects button.
Tips:
-
- You can turn off the option to automatically assign a person to all new projects by clicking the Disable link at the top of the person’s Assigned projects screen.
- If someone is already assigned to all current projects but the option to assign them to future projects has been disabled, you can turn it back on by clicking the Assign to all future projects link at the top of the person’s Assigned projects screen.
- You can also choose which projects a Manager or Administrator can manage from this section. Check the box in the Manages this project column next to any project the teammate needs to manage and the change will sync in the account automatically.
- If you assign an Administrator or Manager to all projects, the box underneath Manages this project will be checked automatically for each project. You can uncheck it next to any project the teammate doesn’t need to manage and it will sync in the account.
- If you increase a Member’s permissions level to Manager or Administrator, and then assign them to all projects, the Manages this project box will not be checked next to any project where they had tracked time as a Member. You’ll need to manually check the box next to those projects if you’d like the person to manage them.
