Most likely you do not have manager permissions on the object in question, e.g. on the portfolio or team. Administrator users can give you the required permissions on the object by adding you to the Manager section in the properties of the object.
Most likely you do not have manager permissions on the resources. In this case you can either ask a system user for these permissions or alternatively, you can use the workflow Resource Assignment Approval (needs to be activated in the system settings of Planforge). You can request a resource via this workflow. Users with managing permissions on this resource can approve or deny this request afterwards in the tab My To-Dos.
Administrators can change the sender address under System Settings > ADMINISTRATE > Settings > Notification > Notification sender e-mail.
Users displayed in grey are either project contributors or a project manager of the project. By adding project contributors to the project team, they automatically own permissions on the project that are shown in grey in the Permissions tab.
A likely reason for this is that your user is not linked to a resource. You can link your resource to your user by opening the resource properties and simply setting the Linked User to your user.
This is likely because the resources have not yet been added to the project team. To assign them, in the project go to Properties > Project Charter > Project Team.

The tool group CUSTOMERS is hidden by default. Users with the access level System can make them visible by enabling the corresponding checkbox for managers in the system settings under CUSTOMIZE > Tools. Afterwards managers are able to see this tool group and can create new customers there.
Administrators can change which tabs are visible based on permissions under System Settings > CUSTOMIZE > Tools.
