Why This Matters

Setting the right permissions keeps sensitive information secure while making sure your team can access exactly what they need to do their jobs.

With permission-based visibility for the notes section, admins can control who can view project notes within a project. If a user does not have the required permission, the entire notes section will remain hidden, helping teams protect sensitive information while keeping the project view clean and role-specific. Follow the steps below to enable permissions for note visibility in project details.

What You'll Need

Admin access to SubcontractorHub
A web browser (Chrome or Edge recommended)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

From the main menu, click "Users and Roles" and select "User Profiles" from the dropdown.

Step 2

Choose the profile from the list for which you want to enable the permission and click the "View Detail" icon.

Step 3

Click "Projects".

Step 4

Scroll down to find View Project Notes and click the "Enable the Permission" toggle to turn on the permission.
