    Every user that accesses GS (project server) gets a CAL, even if they are not working on projects on the server. Support told me, that a CAL is taken if a suser has some server based projects in his list. It should be possible to: a) see which user...
  • Changing the number of phases and their names in GroupShare

    • Under Community Review on
    • 10 Comments
    This idea is simple. There should be a chance to create a custom sequence of phases in GroupShare. For example, instead of the usual 4 phases, I might need 8 or 9 phases of work for a given project. Also, customization of phase names is a must.

    • 1 Comment
    Considering the cost for Client Access Licenses, it is important to monitor and control who is using your CALs. As long as a file is checked out to a user, this user occupies a CAL and might in some cases block access for others if you are running out...

    When working on multiple projects with a large number of files in a number of different languages I would like to be able to see all files that are currently checked out (and to whom). I know that I can go to each project individually and find the information...
