A project team member is a user who has been assigned to work on a project. This implies that he/she has been invited to the project's Planzone, and that he/she has been added to the project team by the Project Manager. All project team members can view project data. A project team member's specific project permissions determine the type of data he/she can actually edit.

The Project Manager can also create "virtual" team members. This can be useful when you don't know yet who will be the real team member. You can organize the work and assign to-dos or activities to virtual team members. And once you know who is going to realize the work, you just replace the virtual member by a real team member. In project templates, you have only virtual team members.

The Project Manager can also define groups in the project team. This allows quicker assignments, by selecting a group instead of selecting the members one by one.
