Projects – System configuration

The settings of the "Projects" admin area: project fields, project structure, new projects, backlog/sprint, capacities and milestones (Settings tile) plus the admin tiles (project types, project phases, project statuses, workflows, calculations, layouts …).

The Projects area controls the structure, fields and workflows of project work – from the project structure through capacities to Scrum (backlog/sprint). You’ll find a specific field fastest via the Configuration search (filter “Projects”); this article is the map.

How to reach this area: Home page → System configuration → category Projects.

ℹ The category has 15 tiles. Fully documented here is the central settings tile (207 fields); the rest are admin lists (see below).
