the role of Vault Consumer and access to the same Vault database. Add

Groups can have different roles in relation to a particular database, and
you can change the roles of users by moving them into the appropriate
group.

Exercise 3: Creating a Project

This exercise demonstrates how to log in to the project management system
and create a project.
A project is a collection in the Prospector tree that represents objects in a
database (vault). Each project is essentially a folder that contains drawings,
databases of points, and reference objects, such as surfaces, alignments, and
pipe networks. A project folder can also contain other documents relevant to
an engineering project.
A database user with the Vault Editor role can create projects.
For more information, see the AutoCAD Civil 3D Help topic Working with
Vault Projects.
The following procedure assumes that you are already logged in to the database
as described in
