The next step is to build data needed for projects in ManageQM365. When some of these are relevant for a project type, tag them to this project type. We call the sum of all the resources marked on a specific project type a "Project type template". Later, the resources can be copied into a new project of this type.

The process map start page for any project type is selected from the drop-down menu while editing a project type in ManageQM365. This will be the top-level process map that users can access while working in the Project Room, provided no boxes are linked to any drawings/process maps at a higher level.
...
Documents and templates are all types of documents that are tagged in the DD function on project type. After publishing, they will be available as part of the project type template when you copy data from Manage the system to a project space.

Documents tagged and published on a project type will appear in the Project Type tab labeled "Documents/Templates":

Project tasks are the same type of data that is used for checklists in e.g. Outlook and can be found in the left menu in Manage under "Project".
...
When creating new and/or editing tasks, add relevant project type(s). Please note that adding data such as Start and Due date is irrelevant since this type of data is relevant for each individual project space. Data that must be filled in is Task name. Optional data that may be useful (but not required) are Description, Priority, Predecessors.

Checkpoint templates are added/edited in the left menu in Manage under Project. Each checkpoint must belong to a checkpoint name - it is a category of checkpoints. Add a title and at least one project type. Optional additional data are:

To create a project, go to the list called Projects under Project in Manage. The default view shows all projects the logged-in user is either responsible for, or is a member of.
Create a project room
This is where you create an actual project room with all its features and resources. Edit the project and go to the "Project Room" tab and click the "Create New Project Room" button.
After creating a project room, you can copy the project type template with all the resources to your new project.
When you create a project room, you decide what types of access different users should have. When you create a new project room, you need to decide on two permission settings:
Inherit top link bar
Inherit permissions from Manage (top system)
Inherit top link bar
If you are inviting external users, set this to "No", but this option should be "Yes" if it is an internal project. This means that the top bar menu will provide links to the top menus and make it easier for colleagues to access the other modules.
Inherit permissions from Manage / top system
When "Inherit permissions from Manage" is set to "Yes", all users who have access rights to QM365 will have the same access to this project space. For internal project rooms, this is usually the most practical option. If you choose "No", you will get a project room that has its own rights management.

Tips to the project manager
As a project manager, there are certain functions that you especially need to know how to operate:
You need to know how to turn the different functions on/off in a project room. Make sure that only the functions that are in use are visible. Features that are not in use will only distract and confuse.
If a project room has separate access rights, you must be able to invite new and remove users from the project room.
In QM365 you need to know how to:
Create and edit projects in the "Projects" menu.
Creates multiple project rooms for a project and sets up the correct permission settings for each one.
Get an overview of the project status and the project roll-up functions.
Make sure project members learn how to use the tools set up in their project rooms.
