During last couple of days I had to make lots of TFS tasks with my colleagues in Dev Centre. Part of them was bulk of administrative tasks to assign correct permissions to different areas of the TFS such as Source Control, Share Point, Reports and other. All this areas have independent roles and permissions configuration and it’s not really easy using standard tools to give the same permissions to someone in these different sub-areas. What we’ve discovered was the TFS Administrator tool on CodePlex that allows you easily to manage multiple permission sets for different projects and users. We found this as fast enough way for tasks we have, and I could recommend it to use in such scenarios.
