The P6 Team Member suite of interfaces is designed for individual contributors, or team members, to record status on their tasks without the need to learn an enterprise project management application. The P6 Team Member interfaces are the P6 Team Member for iOS and P6 Team Member for Android mobile apps, P6 Team Member Web, and E-mail Statusing Service. These interfaces provide quick, convenient, and easy access to assigned tasks using the platform or device that accommodates your line of work.
Your project manager uses P6 to create and update the project schedule and task list. Depending on the project preferences the manager selected when creating the project in P6, the updates you make in P6 Team Member interfaces will either apply immediately or require approval before they are applied to the project.
Work assignments in P6 Team Member interfaces are based on work distribution filters, or a team member being named as a resource assignment or an activity owner. As a team member, all P6 Team Member interfaces enable you to:
View only your assigned tasks.
Provide status on your tasks. The project manager customizes the status fields in your view. These fields can include time spent, time left, % complete, remaining duration, start date, and finish date.
