Permissions are vital to ensuring your team is editing and accessing information in the best way. Acelab has 4 different roles available. Permissions, like collaboration, are handled on a per-project basis. For example, if you are a Project Manager and you created the project, you will be the Admin of the project. But, if a colleague invites you into their project, it could be as an Editor or Viewer. In other words, your permission on each project can vary.

It is also important to note that permissions currently only apply to schedules functionality. Comparisons, conversations, and the ability to search and save products to a project are not affected by permissions. Anyone invited to any project will still have full access to comparisons, conversations, and search history.
