What is the Project Details page?

Any time you internally access a Project on Bonfire, you will initially load the Project Details page.

The Project Details page allows you to make edits or changes to the project's settings or schedule, view project attributes, check important dates or make other important high-level changes to the project.

When navigating through a Project, you can always return to Project Details by clicking Details on the left navigation bar, as indicated below:

What are Project Labels?

Each project is labeled with its' status, name, reference number, project owner, department and visibility settings.

What Can I Do on the Project Details page?
