Dears,

Recently I have installed SharePoint 2013 with Project server 2013 for my company, after installation is done, I have created PWA for uploading and working users MS projects, but I wants to add new users to be able to open for example our projects server link which I created lets say http://test/PWA , in 2010 it was easy to add users in security, kindly I wants to know steps how to add new user to open MS Project server in client computers.

Thanks..

Hi Dana,

Project Server 2013 offers two security modes for controlling the kind of access that users have to sites and projects.

1. Project Server Permission Mode

2. SharePoint Permission Mode

Refer:-

1. Plan user access in Project Server 2013: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161361.aspx

2. SharePoint Permissions Mode default permissions for Project Server 2013 SharePoint groups: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219510.aspx

By default when you provision a new PWA site in Project Server 2013 its in SharePoint Permission Mode where you don't see the Manage Securities in PWA Settings Page as in Project Server 2010.

If you like to Manage the Security in your PWA you can change the permission mode by running the command Set-SPProjectPermissionMode in SharePoint Management Shell

Refer:- Set-SPProjectPermissionMode: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219486.aspx

Thanks, kindly how can I fill below function, becuase there are something which is not clear for me..

What shall I write in URI and Mode ?

Set-SPProjectPermissionMode [-Url] <Uri> [-Mode] <SharePoint | ProjectServer | UninitializedSharePoint | UninitializedProjectServer> [[-AdministratorAccount] <String>] [-AssignmentCollection <SPAssignmentCollection>]

Hi Dana

Abbreviating it for you,

Set-SPPRojectPermissionMode Url <PWA URL> -AdministratorAccount DomainName\AdminUserAccount -Mode ProjectServer

Replace <PWA URL> with your pwa site url might be     http://companyps/pwa

Thanks
