Step 1: Define Project Data
Only available to Buzzsaw Professional Administrators.
Step 1 of setting-up a project:
Defining the data for a project is the first step in creating a project. Project
Data allow administrators to customize the data that is displayed in dashboards,
forms, form logs and reports. By using Project Data you will save project
members time when creating forms. Much of the data that is entered in the
Project Data page will be used to auto-populate fields in forms and business
processes, and are displayed in the Project Personal and Executive
Dashboard
Overview
(page 275).
To define project data:
