Creating a Server Project

Large teams should create server projects for working on Citavi projects collaboratively. To create server projects, you need Citavi for DBServer. Usually, server projects are created by the person who created the Citavi database on the SQL server (i.e. the dbo or database owner). This right can be assigned to other users as well.
