Project user roles
See which roles each company type can have in a project, and what each role is allowed to do.

What each role can do
The table lists features in the left column, Features. Roles run across the top, grouped by company type. Y means yes, the role can use the feature. N means no.
For example, follow the PM column in the Main Contractor section. Every feature has a Y, so this role can use all features. In the Site Supervisor column, features such as Create Activity and Edit Activity have an N. A Site Supervisor cannot use them.
