hi all

i have the following scenario: multiple projects are running under a master project. each sub-project has several phases (ex. foundation, form-work,reinforcement, piping, electrical ..etc). each sub-project will be handled by different project manager. for example electrical engineer will look after all electrical installations in different projects. he should be able to edit and assign tasks under electrical phase. how ever, i need to restrict him from viewing any data or tasks under other phases. all in all, i need him to just see electrical phase of all sub-projects. is this possible in any ms project old or new versions like 2013 or 365??[ponder]

thanks
 
No, sorry. If a user has access to the file he can see and edit all values. This does not change in either the new version nor the Project online version. You could ensure through network permissions that the EE can only access his files - but if you give him access to the master -- he can edit everything.

I hope this helps.
Julie
