After you create a team project collection, you can add or change resources for it and the projects that it supports. For example, you can add a SharePoint Web application to a collection after you create it. When you add a resource to a collection, all projects that are subsequently created in that collection will have access to that resource. However, you can also add a resource to a project that was created before that resource was added.
You can add or configure the following resources to support team projects:
A SharePoint Web application and site collection to host team project portals for projects in the collection
A SharePoint site or Web site to act as the portal for a team project
A server that is running SQL Server Reporting Services to provide default reports and dashboards that show the progress of a team project
Guidance for team project members about the processes to follow when working in the team project
Web Access features, such as planning and backlog management tools
Automated e-mails that inform project members of changes in the team project
