However the \"Access levels\" tab in Control Panel is not visible to our TF

Answer 1

To see the Access levels tab, you need to add the user to Team Foundation Administrators group

If you don't see the Access levels tab, you aren't a TFS administrator and don't have permission. Here's how to get permissions (Add administrators to TFS).

You can quickly grant these permissions to administrators by adding them to the Team Foundation Administrators group from TFS administration console in Team Foundation Server (TFS).

Follow the steps mentioned in this link : Add administrators to TFS:

1. On the application-tier server, add the user to the local Administrators group.

2. In the TFS administration console and add the user to the set of users who can run the administration console.

   • Make sure you have selected the Add user to Team Foundation Administrators group item.
