What do the confidential project settings do?

Seventh Edition

Newforma has three different setting in Seventh Edition for confidential projects.

In the Project Information tab, click the confidential drop-down list and select
• Select No to make this project visible in the All Projects tab and available to all users regardless of operating system permissions for the project folder.
• Select Yes - Administrator Access, so that only Project Center administrators can access the project.
• Select Yes - Project Team Access so that only contacts on the internal project team can access the project.

Once a project is designated as confidential, Project Center checks the file system permissions for the project’s files for each user, and displays the project in the All Projects tab accordingly. Projects marked as Confidential can only be seen by users who have access rights to the project files at the operating system level. The project will not appear for users who do not have access rights to the files at the operating system level.

By default, projects do not show up on Newforma Info Exchange, and public transfers are disabled. Verify that the Make this Project Available on Your Newforma Info Exchange Server and the Allow Public File Transfers checkboxes in the Info Exchange tab of the Edit Project Settings dialog box are set appropriately for your confidential project.
