Overview of views

Views allow team members to see only certain areas of projects, based on fields and filters. The following are types of project information team members can view:

Views allow team members to see more than just the tasks they are working on and allow managers to communicate critical information about their projects throughout the organization.

The Microsoft Project Central administrator designates the views that workgroup members can use to see project information and defines exactly what information users can see. 

The project manager may need to coordinate with the system administrator to be sure all users can view the information they need. To set up views for team members, the administrator, points to Admin on the menu bar, and then clicks Manage Views. Learn more about setting up views.
