The Defined Roles list is available for selection for any element in the model; for example, you can select roles on the Project Authors tab of the People dialog, and the Resource Allocation tab of the Project Management window

You can also specify other roles on these dialogs, but such roles are not added to the Defined Roles list

Project Authors

Resource Allocation

Notes:

  • Deleting a role has no effect on any Project Author definition having this role; the deleted role becomes a simple text entry in the Project Author definition
  • You can transport these role definitions between models, using the Export Reference Data and Import Reference Data options
