Assigning a Default Project to a User

After creating a project, you can set it as the default project for the particular user group. However, only users of administrators and sysadmin group or the owner of a project can assign a default project to other users of the same group.
After assigning a default group to a user, when the user login Adeptia Suite, all the activities of the user will be in the saved in the default project of the respective user. However, the user can select and change the project while saving the activity, if required.
For example, if you want to assign the project Warehouse_Inventory to a user, you need to perform the following steps.
