How can we help?

Setting up your first Project

All elements in Excelway are organized within Projects. Projects allow you to manage all the workshops and meetings, as well as the tasks related to a specific team, initiative or goal within your organization. 

If you signed up to Excelway through its website, we already created a project for you to get you started. 

Invite Project Members

To start collaborating on your Project, invite Project Members.

You can do this by clicking the + Invite Members button in the Project bar, or the green icon below it.

Please note that to be able to invite Project Members, you need to have an Admin role in the Project. Read more about roles and permissions on Excelway.

From the Manage Members window, to add a member to the Project:

1. Click on Add user. This will create a new line at the bottom of the window.

2. Type the member’s work email.

3. Assign a role to the member.

4. Assign a position (optional)

5. If you wish that this new member has access to the previously created Boards, Workshops and Sub-Project, check Apply changes to all Boards and adjoining sub-projects.

6. Save your changes.

7. The member will receive an email notifying him/her that you invited him/her to the Project. If he/she doesn’t have an Excelway account, the system will automatically invite him/her to create one.
