Finding a project
Finding projects offers a couple of search options.
Users are able to toggle between search options such as PROJECT INFO, LOCKCHART INFO or related PEOPLE.
Each of the screens has different fields that can be used to look for projects.

TIP - Note that each of the search methods can become default view. To achieve that option 'Make this my default view' must be clicked.

Project details
