ArcSite uses three access levels to control what each person on your team can see and do. Every user starts with Standard access. You can add Project Manager and Admin access on top of that based on their role.

Access Levels
Standard The default for all new accounts. Standard users can only see their own projects and drawings. They can't view other users' work unless added as a collaborator on a specific project.
Project Manager Can view and manage all projects in the company — including drawings, PDFs, takeoff reports, and proposals — regardless of who created them.
Admin Can access Advanced Settings on the User Site. Admins manage user accounts, access levels, products and pricing, proposal templates, and integrations. Limit this role to a few trusted people.
Access levels stack. A user can be Standard only, Standard + Project Manager, Standard + Admin, or all three. Many small teams have one person who holds both roles.
