Project Task Gantt Permissions Overview

As a system administrator, you must update your organization’s Salesforce user profiles to allow access for users who will maintain project tasks.

In Project Task Gantt only resources that are the designated project manager of a project automatically have permissions to read, create, update and delete project tasks. Other resources cannot edit, create, delete or update project tasks unless you grant them Create, Edit, Delete and Modify All permissions on the following objects:

Other resources must have been assigned either the Project Task Gantt View or Project Task Gantt Edit permission control. For more information, see "Permission Control Fields".

Ensure the "Bypass Internal FLS and CRUD" security settings are selected if you want to use the Project Task Gantt Edit permission control. For more information, see "Security Settings".

Notes
Project Task Gantt displays and formats numbers and dates according to the locale of your Salesforce user. If you have not changed this, the default locale of your Salesforce organization is used. We recommend that you set the same time zone on your computer and the Salesforce User Time Zone field. If you do not do this, Start and End dates of project tasks may change in ways that you do not expect. To change the locale of your Salesforce user, from Setup click My Personal Information | Personal Information.
If you use Project Task Gantt and create or edit tasks in Salesforce or Task Management Classic, you must ensure that the Start Date & Time field of a task always starts at 8AM and the End Date & Time field of a task always finishes at 5PM. If the task is a checkpointZero day task record, which is used to represent an event in the project such as a key decision, completion of a work package, completion of a deliverable or end of a phase. Checkpoint tasks have no relationship with PSA milestones., ensure that the Start Date & Time and End Date & Time fields contain the same value. If you do not do this, Project Task Gantt may display task durations that you were not expecting.
