What determines what a project member can do in Project Tracker?

What a project member can do in Project Tracker is determined by the project role assigned to the user.

Users see only functions that they have the permission to perform. For example, a developer will not see the Project Tracker > Manage Artifact Types link in the left navigation pane of the Projects tab. Guests will not see a link to enter a new artifact.
