Who can do what in Agencies PM

Give each agency role the project records and decisions it needs.

How permissions work

Start with the engagement

Give project owners access to their client projects and linked delivery work.

Keep time decisions distinct

Contributors submit hours; the workflow approves valid entries and a time approver reviews the outcome and project context.

Review client evidence deliberately

A client reviewer needs only the project material and decisions intended for that review.
