The OpenProject Global Roles plugin allows a user to have a global role with permissions to perform actions outside of the scope of a specific project normally only allowed for administrators. By assigning the permission to create projects to a global role, non-administrators can create top-level projects.

To create a global role, go to the Administration view, select “Roles and permissions”, and click on “New Role”. Afterwards, select the checkbox “Global Role” and choose the permissions for this role. The created global role can be assigned to individual users in the added “Global Roles” tab of the user settings.
