Managing your projects

The projects listing page provides an overview of the projects you can access with summarized information like project number, name, status, and other records.

Exploring the listing page

The Projects Listing Page is designed to help you stay organized by providing a centralized view of all projects and enabling quick access to critical project details. The page includes several key features to streamline project management: The Project Module Listing Page layout in Zuper includes view management, column selection, views, and saving customized views. This process is performed directly on the module’s listing page. Default Listing Behavior The system retains its existing default listing behavior, ensuring that pre-set configurations or default views are preserved.

Setting Permissions for Views

​

Edit Permissions

Users with edit permissions can modify the layout:

• They can add/remove columns, reorder them, and adjust views as described above.
• If permission is given, changes can be saved as a new view or overwritten as an existing one.

​

View Permissions

Users with view-only permissions can see the layout but cannot make changes:

• They can view the customized columns and filters but cannot edit them. To ensure consistency for viewers, they can save them as a new “View.”

​

Make changes to the view

• Rename: This option allows you to change the view’s name (e.g., from “Prj” to something else).
• Visibility: This lets you adjust who can see the view. Options include sharing with a user or team or keeping it private (“Only Me”), as well as toggling visibility for all users in Zuper (as shown in the “Create a View” dialog in prior images).
• Duplicate: This function creates a copy of the “Prj” view, allowing you to modify the duplicate without affecting the original.
• Delete: Removes the view entirely. Since this is a custom view, deleting it would revert the listing to the default view or another saved view. Only the created user can delete the view.

The Project Module Listing Page in Zuper allows for flexible layout customization directly on the listing page. You can select and reorder columns, apply views, save customized views, and set permissions to ensure the right level of access for your team. Use the steps above to tailor the view to your workflow and save it for future use. After filtering a specific Project, click the “Project Name” or “Project Number” to view and manage its details.

​

Managing project details

Once a project is created or accessed from the listing page, the Project Details Page serves as your central hub for managing its lifecycle. The details page has a three-column layout, providing quick access to information and actions within each panel access to view information such as project details, associated notes, parts & services, jobs, and activities.
