-The RDMS Project environment can be used to store data sets that are intended to be published. Therefore, datasets that are part of a publication such as an article, poster, book (chapter), thesis, conference proceeding and software should be stored in this area. Furthermore, stricter permission management and user roles exist compared to Team Drives. The reason for this is to make sure that the the datsets that are converted to a project comply with quality requirements of becoming a publication. In order to create an RDMS Project you should be first part of the Data Management group. On the other hand, additional policies on the data can be implemented upon request by the users. An example of a policy would be: "Revoke access of participants after XX months". +The RDMS Project environment can be used to store data sets that are intended to be published.

 Once a project is completed, an archiving workflow can be initialized. During this archiving workflow, the data is checked by the responsible persons, is enriched with metadata, and finally put as a data package in a fixed state. Currently, RDMS does not have the functionality to publish these data packages. This user manual and the users will be updated once publishing becomes available.  Once a project is completed, an archiving workflow can be initialized.
