Activate and Edit Project Services

Project administrators can activate services for the projects they are assigned to and assign additional project administrators. Only account administrators can create projects, at which time they can also activate services.

Activate a New Service for a Project

  1. In the Project Admin module, click the Services tab.

  2. Make sure Overview is selected in the left panel.

  3. In the Project Services list, click Activate for the service you want to add to the project.

    If you are activating services for the first time on your project, you'll have the option to apply a project template. The project template allows you to use settings from an existing project as a template for your new project. To do so:

    a. Enable the Apply a project template radio button.

    b. Select the project to use as the template.

    If you don't want to use a project template:

    c. Enable the Don't apply a project template radio button.

  4. Click Activate.

In either case, you are added as the first project administrator when activating a service for the first time on your project. You must be a member of the project for this to be successful. You can add additional project administrators later.

After you've activated at least one service, you can just click Activate from the list of project services to activate additional services.

Note: If you activate a service that has a dependency on another service, that dependent service is also activated. For example, if you try to activate Model Coordination before Document Management, Document Management will also be activated.
