## Overview

BigGantt’s modules are a set of versatile tools designed to support various aspects of project management and management approaches. These modules work together to provide a comprehensive, flexible solution for teams to plan, track, and execute projects and programs. 

With its modular approach, BigGantt enables teams to customize their workflows, adapt to specific project requirements, and align with organizational goals.

There are two modules to choose from, each offering a different area of focus:

## Security and access (customize module availability)

Default [module availability](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BGdcDRAFT/pages/2613550657) in individual boxes depends on their [box type](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BGdcDRAFT/pages/2613548457) and [module configuration](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BGdcDRAFT/pages/2613550657): 

- Jira and App Admins can customize box type settings by enabling or disabling module availability in specific box types: **App Settings** (wrench icon) > **Administration** > **Box types** > select a **box type** from the list > **General** > **Modules**.

- [Box Admins](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BGdcDRAFT/pages/2613553794) can change the box type settings in individual boxes to ensure their box has all the right tools to cater to their unique initiative: **Module switcher** > **Manage modules**.

## Switch between the modules (module switcher)

To navigate between the modules, use the **module switcher**—a handy dropdown that lists all the modules enabled in the current box. Every user who has access to the box can use the module switcher to view or manage different aspects of the initiative (depending on their permissions).

You can also use the module switcher to go directly to the *Modules* settings page (**Manage modules**) or the entire box configuration page (**Configuration**).

See the video on the module switcher below. 

*Note that the following video was shot on BigPicture Enterprise Cloud. The modules shown in the video are not available in BigGantt, but the module switcher behaves the same way.*
