In addition to module access and security privileges, you can further control access to P6 functionality with user interface views. A user interface view is a defined set of tabs, pages, and menu items that a user assigned to that view can access in the main sections of P6 (Dashboards, Portfolios, Projects, Resources, and Administer). It also helps to control the fields that a user can edit in the Activity page. You can create multiple user interface views that correspond to the job functions performed by each role in your organization, or you can create user interface views to meet each individual user's needs. You can designate one user interface view as the default view for new users.
Note: The default view controls user access to functionality only for new users who are not already assigned a user interface view. When you paste a copied user, however, the new user will have the same user interface view as the copied user. If the user you copy has modified their user interface view, the pasted user will be assigned the default view. Existing users who do not have an assigned user interface view can continue to access all functionality. You can define the default view for new users on the User Interface Views page. See the P6 Help for more information.
