Specify the Authors

The Authors screen in the Create new view wizard allows you to specify the users who will be authors of the work view. You can choose specific users (resources), or an organization unit, position, or group (in which case, users mapped to that organizational entity will be authors of the view).

See Work View Permissions for more information.

Note: If you click Next without specifying any authors, no authors are defined.
