Project

The project is the root of it all.

Not only is it the highest level element, it is also what provides for group membership and what guarantees the privacy of each project within the site. That means that people who are not logged in, or who are not members of your development group, will never see the Project Flow & Tracker part of the site. They will just see the site you are building.

The project simply provides the minimum amount of information to identify itself.

The project is also the root of a whole hierarchy of documents and elements which enable you to always be able to drill down and then zoom out again. Before creating a child element of project (be it Role, Release, Project Document), always click on the "MAKE TARGET" button so that you will be able to check the parent-child relationship when you are editing the new child element.
