Setting up member account

Members are people who can access Tasifier for task management. As Tasifier is a part of VPository and Visual Paradigm Teamwork Server, what you have to do to create a member is to invite or add him/her through VPository/Teamwork Server. Then, grant project access right to the member, to allow him or her to use Tasifier for that project.

2. Visit and login your cloud entry point.
3. Click on your logo at the top right of the page and then select Manage VPository from the drop down menu.
