Troubleshooting and setup

The Resources module aggregates data from all sub-boxes in the portfolio. The view is based on individual users or teams.

...

Portfolio box teams

A portfolio should have the same teams as the boxes it contains.

...

  1. If the Teams module isn't active, activate, activate it.

In the portfolio box, there are more than those four teams:

Moving a task in the Resources module of the portfolio box lets you reassign it to a different team. Teams have to be from the same box.

A task isn't being moved to a different box - only a team assignment is changed.
