Project Area Vs Team Area Membership


Qaiser Islam (31287074) | asked Dec 28 '09, 9:32 a.m.
hi,
i setup a project with 2 team areas , dev team and qa team. the process template i used is Scrum.

the problem is when the user (member of dev team) try to deliver the code gets "permission denied" error.

this user has team member role and has the permission to deliver the code.
Permission is configured at project area level and i double checked Project Area > Team

Configurations > Permission.

I did not configured any permission at team area or iteration level and for all items i can see the '?' sign mean unconfigured. What my understanding is if u dont configure permission at lower level then upper level permission will be effective. In my case permission at project level.

On other hand when i added that user to project area level. it worked.

do i need to add users to both project level and team area level or i did something wrong?
i m uring rtc 2.0.0.1

regards,
Qaiser

The process that applies to a stream is the process defined by the
process area that "owns" that stream. I'm guessing that your streams
are currently owned by the project area (not by a team area), which
means it is the roles that a person has in the project area that
determines whether or not that person can deliver to the stream.

So you have two choices:
- Change the ownership of the stream to be a team area, and then it will
be the role a person has in that team area that determines whether they
can deliver (this is probably what you want).
- Give the person that role in the project area (what you tried, but
probably not what you want).

Cheers,
Geoff
