Introduction
To control who can view and edit the Gantt chart in Easy8, you need to configure user roles and permissions. This guide shows how to enable access and editing rights for Easy Gantt through the administration panel.
Target Audience
- Administrator
Prerequisites
- Administrator rights to access global settings
- At least one user role configured in your system
Steps
1. Open Roles and Permissions
- Go to Global menu → Administration → Roles and permissions
2. Configure Global and Project Permissions for Gantt
- Select the role you want to configure (e.g., Manager, Developer)
- Scroll to the Gantt section
- Set permissions under:
- Global permissions → Gantt
- Project permissions → Gantt
- This allows the user role to access Easy Gantt on both global and project levels
3. Enable Editing of Tasks in Gantt
- Go to Project permissions → Task tracking
- Check the box for Manage task's relations
- This enables the Edit button in Gantt so users can move tasks, adjust dates, and set dependencies
Conclusion
Setting up permissions in Easy Gantt ensures users can access and work with project timelines based on their role. Granting access through the Gantt and Task tracking sections lets users view and manage tasks while keeping control over who can make changes.
