Start Date
End Date
Client
Original Budget
Current Budget
Once all required details are complete, click Next.
The Members section is where you assign access permission for the users or group of users who can access the project.
Select the Type of users who can access the project. You may choose between the two:
Individuals: select if only specific users can access the project.
Groups: select if a user group (Department, Team, etc.) needs to access the project.
Then, select the users or group (depending on which type you picked) you want to give access to. Click the names to give access. This cannot be changed once you created the project.
Select the Solution that you need to install to the project. Select among the available Steer Construction Solutions:
You may also click View Resources to see the list of Workflows and Records available in that Solution.
On the Component Settings page, select each record and add users who can access each record. Do this for ever component of the Solution/s you selected from the previous step to finalize the user permissions for your project.
Ensure that the correct users are accessing the forms by reviewing the access settings.
To do this:
Switch to Builder profile using the Steer sidebar. If you do not have Builder access, contact your Steer admin.
Then search for the module (e.g., Site Materials, Quality and Safety, Design Management, etc.) that you need to review its user access.
Select a workflow on the list.
Click on Edit Access.
This pulls up the User Access setting.
Cycle through each Process Steps on the left panel and click the appropriate access for each defined user in the current step.
To select a user, click on the User Type field and select between Group or Individual.
Then select groups or individual users on the next field. Note that only these selected users can access the form of the selected workflow. Also, these users are the assigned requestors or approvers in the selected process step.
