A Project Administrator can control security defining users and access rights.
The Project Center supports report across an organization at the project level. Managers can drill down into project details.
The project manager needs to communicate project plans and to distribute task assignments to team members. Assignment of tasks can be distributed to team member home pages in Web Access.
