For each project in a Synthesis repository, one user will be assigned as the project owner. By default, the owner will be the user who created the project, but this can be changed when needed.
In a secure database, being the project owner means that you have full permissions over the project. This includes the ability to edit the project properties, add/edit/delete project items and resources, lock and unlock, set security settings, create restore points and delete the project. These permissions are always in effect regardless of the project security settings or item permissions that may be in place.
In a non-secure database, any user can assign a different user to be the owner for a selected project. In a secure database, only users with the "Manage all projects" permission can change the project owner.
To change the owner, select the project in the project list and choose Project > Security > Change Owner.
If you want to change the owner for multiple projects simultaneously, use the Manage Projects window.
There are three ways to identify the current owner of a project:
Use the filters in the project list to filter and/or group projects based on the project owner. For example:
The Project Properties window (Project > Management > Edit Project Properties) displays the name of the current owner in the status bar at the bottom of the window.
The Manage Projects window (Project > Management > Manage Projects) displays a list of all projects and their owners in a table format. You can use custom filters to filter, sort and/or group the list based on the project owner. (In a secure database, only users with the "Manage all projects" permission can access this window.)
