(4) Reduce the administrative burden of manually moving projects between categories. 


(5) Reduce technical support requests for needing adhoc access to projects.

What Business Issues are overcome?

1. There is no Out-of-box method to automate the movement of projects between security categories based on state or attribute of project. 


2.  Huge manual effort to move project from one category to another to serve complex security requirements. This would be practically impossible to manually manage for large number of projects.


3.  Users not able to effectively provide access to portfolio of projects for different user roles e.g. department heads, resource managers, product managers etc. Unable to slice across a list of projects to categorise projects for different roles. 


4.  Unable to dynamically add and/or remove projects from security categories. 


5.  User not able to effectively follow the project life cycle to archive completed projects by removing them from existing security categories and adding them to deny categories. 


6.  User not able to easily link project access with user defined workflows.
