﻿# How the Projects workspace is organized

> [HTML Version](project-management.html)

**Projects** is a system workspace in the BRIX platform used to manage the company’s ongoing projects. Here, you can create structured project plans, assign tasks to employees, track each stage of work, and review results for completed projects.

The workspace consists of:

- The **Project register** page. Here you can see all the current projects of the company and open any project [page](project-card.md).

- The** My recent projects **separator. Here you can see the projects that you have recently opened or created.

- The **Resources** separator. There are directories for working with [resources](project-resources.md) in project tasks.

- The **Project types** separator. The [types of projects](project-types.md) created by the administrator are displayed here. To create a project of a certain type, go to the corresponding app.

- **Projects**, **Project Plan**, **Project Plan Element**, and **Project Task **system apps. They are only used by the administrator, so they’re hidden from the left menu by default. These apps store all the created projects, project plans and tasks as separate [app items](360016427291.md). These apps allow you to set up the project page, define how the project plan and project tasks are managed, or configure access to the workspace. To learn more, see [Set up the Projects workspace](project-system-apps.md) and [Set up access and roles in Projects](project-access-and-roles.md), [Configure plan publication](plan-approval-setting.md).****

- The **Projects archive** page. It is hidden by default in the left menu of the workspace. The archive contains all [completed projects](archive-project.md) that can be restored to be processed.****

## Project register

Click on the name of a project to open its [page](project-card.md). The page contains information about the project team and deadlines, and shows the project plan and a list of tasks assigned to the user. Here you can view project files and leave a comment in the activity stream. The project manager can also edit the project plan, send it for approval, or publish it. 

By default, entries are displayed as a table. To choose to display as tiles with a set of fields, click **[![layout\_icon](layout_icon.png)]**  at the top of the page.

To [add a new project](create-project.md), click **+Project** in the top right corner of the page.

If a project is finished, you can [archive](archive-project.md) it.

## My recent projects

The projects you have recently opened, for example, viewed their plan or list of tasks, will be displayed in the left menu under the **My recent projects** separator. You can quickly open a project by clicking its name.

## Project types

Here you can view and create projects of any type. The [system administrator](360006871932.md#administrators) defines these types at the stage of setting up the **Projects** workspace. Each type can contain a unique plan template, project page, statuses, and processes. The user can work with a project of any type in the same way as with a basic project type.
