Project Web Access Capabilities(Project Manager & Team Members)

We can use Office Project Web Access to view, analyze, and report on information as well as create project proposals and activity plans

Project Manager:

Project managers can perform a variety of tasks with Project Server to manage their projects:

· Assign and track tasks.

· Perform reporting or status report

· Analyze project costs and other variables -.

· Manage resource availability -

Team members:

• Manage their tasks - Team members can review the tasks assigned by the project manager, respond to those task assignments, and update their task status. They can create tasks and submit them to the project manager for approval, and team members with the appropriate permissions can delegate tasks to other team members.
• View tasks and timelines - Project Server enables team members to view tasks in the project timeline in a Gantt chart format and view their tasks in relation to others in the project. The view can be filtered, grouped, and sorted to help team members reduce the view to focus on specific tasks. Team members with the appropriate permissions can view status information for the entire project, rather than just their own tasks.
• View project tasks with Microsoft Outlook - Project Server enables team members and project managers to view and update project tasks in Microsoft Outlook.

While the project manager needs Project Professional to create the project, he or she can use both Project Professional and Project Web Access to manage the project. For example, the manager can use Project to create new tasks, manage team assignments, and receive and approve (or deny) updates submitted through Project Web Access. Some of the information displayed by Project Web Access isn't available directly in Project however, so managers can also use Project Web Access to view project and resource status and perform many of the other tasks that are available from Project.
