# Who can see and change projects

_Skileo Projects › Projects and tasks · Who can do this: Business owner, Member_

The Business owner can do everything. A Member needs the permission for projects, and the one for rates and budgets to see the money.

## “Business owner”

The “Business owner” sees every project, its tasks, everyone's time and the money, and can do everything with them.

## “Member”

A “Member” has the permissions the “Business owner” gives in “Settings”, “Members”, in the “Projects” block.

The permission for projects:

- “Edit”: see every project, create, change, complete, copy and delete projects, manage their task lists and tasks, and change the project settings.
- “View”: see every project and its tasks, comment, and complete or move the tasks assigned to them. They don't create or change projects.
- Neither: no project. They can still log their own time, without a project, in “Time”.

A new “Member” gets the permission for projects with “Edit”.

## Rates, costs and budgets

The money of a project is behind the permission for rates and budgets, which a “Member” doesn't have until you give it:

- “View”: see the hourly rates, the amounts of the time, the cost and the budget.
- “Edit”: also change the rates and the budget.

Without it, the money fields and figures don't show. See [Billable time, hourly rates and budget](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/billable-time-rates-and-budget).

## Whose time they see

Everyone logs and sees their own time. To see the time of others:

- The “Business owner” sees everyone's.
- A “Member” with “Timesheets” or the permission for rates and budgets set to “View” sees everyone's, on the projects they see.
- A project's leader sees everyone's time on that project.

To log time for someone else, you need to be the “Business owner” or have “Timesheets” set to “Edit”.

## Members of a project

Only a project's members can be given its tasks, follow them and log time on it. Being a member doesn't change what a “Member” may do: their permissions do.

## Employees

An employee sees only the projects they are a member of, never the money, and only their own time. See [What employees see in Projects](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/what-employees-see-in-projects).


## Common questions

### Why doesn't a Member see the budget?

They don't have the permission for rates and budgets set to “View”.

### Why can't a Member create a project?

“Add new” shows only with the permission for projects set to “Edit”.

### Can a Member delete tasks?

Yes, with the permission for projects set to “Edit”. Employees can't delete tasks.
