Editing Permissions
Note: even if you are an admin, you cannot edit your own user permissions. You'll need another admin to edit them.
First, click on Users under Settings.
Then click on the user you want to review permissions for.
This will take you to their profile page. By default, a new user will be a limited access user, but you can give them full access by changing them to an admin.
You can also give them access to see tasks assigned to others:
Give them access to your sales pipelines or process types using the checkboxes in the righthand sidebar.
Click on each pipeline or process to open the permission menu, select the desired permissions, and save.
See an explanation for each individual permission in the sections below.
