1. Obtain a Project Online license
New starters or those new to a project role will need to obtain a Project Online license. The IT PMO can provide a Project Online depending on the role in the project. Requests should be emailed to itpmo@uq.edu.au along with details of the role and access level for the project management, that is whether the role involves management of finances.
Project Professional is not required for using ProTRAC, but it may be desirable for managing the scheduling and Gantt charts of complex projects. Having Project Professional can allow users to edit their project records through the desktop application, edit calendars and greater offers functionality with connecting activities and reporting. Purchase of this software is through UQeMarket and then liaising with ITS for installation on your UQ computer.
2. Obtain access to your project record
Records within ProTRAC are restricted. Access is often granted when the record is set up - however there are instances when a PM will start after the record has been generated. Email access requests to itpmo@uq.edu.au with approval from the Project Owner, Project Sponsor or Program/Project Manager. This includes any requests for reporting (e.g. Project Status Reports).
