Permissions are a very important part of Project tracking. Here you will find the Permissions table where you will be able to see what kind of permission Projectrak can provide in your instance, the level where they apply, and where to set them. 

For all projects

Permission

Level

Where to set

Configure Projectrak

Projectrak administrators can create fields and layouts, and associate projects with layouts.
Use this permission to delegate the administration of Projectrak to users that don't have the Jira Administrator role.

Default permissions 

At the installation of Projectrak the Jira administrator group will have "Configure Projectrak" permission.

The permissions by project will be set depending on your Jira products plan.

Fields value security

If you need to restrict field values and decide who can view or edit them, you can see how to set permissions by field in the Manage project fields section.
