Project for the Web - Allow Team members to edit/view only his task
Hello, Project for the web - I created a project and create a security group for projects. added the team members. Assign the task to teams. Now only task owner should able to edit the percen...
- Jan 23, 2024Users with a Plan 1 or Plan 3 license with just the default Team Member permissions can edit the project in any way they want. There are few limitations to what Plan 1 license user can do, but it's limited by the license and not the assigned permissions.
We opened a ticket with Microsoft on this and they confirmed our findings that the assigned license privileges trump assigned permissions.

Pardon me for bumping into this thread. Because of time zone differences, Paul's work day may have already ended.
To answer your question, team members are only allowed to edit the % Complete value and to mark their tasks as completed. This is by design. Hope this helps.

Dale_HowardMVP I created a project tab in a test team, added a couple of test tasks, and assigned them to two different team members. The team members are able to see the tabs and the tasks, but they cannot even click on the task as "done" or change the % completed. Everything is Read Only. What determines if a member has permission to check the task off as completed?

Hello SBaha ,
For a user to be able to modify a project in Project for the web, the users will need one of the Project Plan licenses or Office 365 users with one of the defined licenses that allow limited edit access, details on the link below:
You'll notice users with just E1, F1 etc. will get view only access.
Hope that helps

- Tingjun_WenJan 25, 2023Copper ContributorPaul Mather I have the Office 365 E3 and Project Plan 3. I created a task in Project for the Web and assigned it to myself and I did not see that this task shows up in "Assigned to me" in Planner. What else should I or the IT admin do to make this work. I am doing this test before I assign tasks to my team members and I was expecting this should work for myself as an assignee.
Thanks,

Paul_Mather Yes. I figured out that users with Office 365 E1 license have view only access while users with Office 365 E3 license can edit project completion status and percent completed.
Thank you very much Paul.

If the team members have a Project Plan 1 license, they will be able to edit the % Complete value and mark their tasks as completed. Without the Project Plan 1 license, all they can do is to view the project Read-Only. Hope this helps.
