Issue/Introduction

There are users who have access rights to view a very small number of projects but they are able to view hundreds of projects.

Why are some users able to see projects that they do not have access rights to?

 

Cause

The user is a participant on the project

Environment

Release : All supported releases

Component : CA PPM SAAS USERS, GROUPS, OBS ADMINISTRATION

Resolution

The user is able to see all projects that they are assigned as a participant even if they are not given explicit access in Resource's access rights.

If the user should not see these projects then he should be removed as a participant.
