If you are seeking information on starting a project or on joining a project then please access the CollabNet Help Information Systems. The Help system has been organized such that, you find the relevant information on application usage quickly and effectively. The links to the Help Pages in the system are at the bottom of the left navigation pane under the section “How do I?”

If you are looking for specific information, click the link “Get Help” that will take you to the list of Help topics available on the CollabNet suite of applications. From here, you can navigate to the Help page with the information you want.

The My start page is your portal to all of your projects. All projects that you have created, joined or watched have links on this page for easy access. This page also has a link to create a new project.

Items are added to this page by completing one of the following tasks:

My Projects

This list captures all the hosted projects which you have joined. If you have started your own project, it will appear along with a link to edit the project. More about project roles.

Pending actions

The Pending actions section will appear on your My start page when there are items that require your attention, such as requests for membership in projects in which you have a Project owner role.

My Project Groups

If you are a member of any project groups you will have a section entitled My project groups on your My start page. Each project group in which you are a member will be listed with its summary. The name of the project group is linked to the project group home page, which is very similar to any other project home page. While project groups are used primarily for administering sets of similar projects they have all the same resources available to any other project on the site.

My Categories

If you are a member of any project categories, you will have a section entitled My Categories on your My start page. Each category in which you are a member will be listed with its summary. The category name is linked to the category home page, which is similar to any other project home page. While categories are used to group projects for administration purposes, they have the same resources available to projects.

Note: These categories that are displayed are "public." Only public top-level and public child categories display under the Show Top-Level Categories section of the "My start page" and the "Community" page.
