How To Create Custom View In Office 365 Project Online

First of all sign into this URL, as shown below.



Enter your credentials to login to the Office365 Project site. After successfully logging in, you will be able to see the screen given below as a landing page.



Now, click Menu, as shown below.



On clicking menu, a list of items will be displayed, as shown below.


 
Select Project.



When you click on Project, you can see Project online landing page, which is PWA (Project Web App) site, as shown below.



As we know that the left side menu list is a quick launch Webpart, we shall see each item in detail in my upcoming articles.

For now, just click on projects option.



When we click on Projects option, then the page redirects to Project center page, as shown above.

Now, click on the projects ribbon, as shown below.



New

Open

You can open Projects in different methods, as shown below.



We shall discuss later on different methods to open the projects in the upcoming articles.

Add Sharepoint Sites

We can add a SharePoint site to each project, as shown below.



Build Team

You can add the resources to the project. You can then assign the task to those resources.

Project Permissions

Set permission to each project in terms of accessing, updating etc.

Check In/Check Out

The terms ‘check in’ and ‘check out’ apply to enterprise projects, enterprise resources and to the Enterprise Global Template. A user must check out any of these before editing, so that others have Read-Only access until the user checks them back in. Check out occurs on a first come first served basis, so the first person who opens the project for editing checks out the project.
