Projects

Projects are not mandatory

Projects is an optional part of the application process, and as an applicant, you may choose to not define a project but some organisations or resources may require it.

Why Should I Use Projects?

Projects is an area of the platform that supports the centralisation of core information which may be reused across multiple DSRs. The information which you provide within the project is not only so you as a user do not have to repeat the same information over and over again, but the information may also be used by approvers when they review your application.

Projects can be created before, or during an application through the 'New Project' page or within your given DSR itself.

Creating a Project

Projects can be created in multiple ways

This section of the guide will walk through creating a project through the dedicated project creation page but projects can also be created from the 'View DSR' page.

Navigate to the 'My Project' page and press the 'New Project' button

Fill out the 'New Project' form

Only the fields which have the 'Required' tag need to be filled out for submission but approvers may request and require more project information before approving a DSR.

Create Project Form

Submit the completed form by pressing the 'Submit' button

Viewing all Projects

All of your projects can be viewed in a tabular format on the 'My Projects' page or by pressing the 'My Projects' link on the navigation bar. Each row of the page contains the following information:

Column	Description

Project RAiD	(Optional) ARDC's unique persistent identifier
Project Name	The user defined name for the project

End Date	The designated end date for the given project
Project Owner	The individual(s) with permission to modify the project's data
Collaborators	The total collaborators within the given project
Project Status	Describes the state of a given project

At the end of each row, are three buttons. They do the following (from left-to-right):

Action	Description
Edit	Will open the project to view and make changes to it (if an owner)
Pause/Enable	Will allow for disabling and re-enabling any project
Archive/Reopening	Will allow for archiving and reopening any project
