In CA Clarity PPM 13.x and CA PPM 14.x, tabs can be deactivated on the portlet page layout or renamed.
Example:
You can create a copy of the 'Project Default Page Layout'. Within this page definition, you can deactivate any of the tabs. When the tab is deactivated, it will not show even if the end-user has the appropriate access rights for viewing the tab. You may want to create a different page layout in this manner for use with specific projects to ensure that the tabs are not accessed. It is recommended not to deactivate tabs on the 'Project Default Page Layout', but instead to make a copy and use the new one for this purpose. To deactivate the individual tabs, use the following steps:
The hidden tabs should disappear from the project page.
