What good looks like

A named team with a clear purpose, active members, supervisor/ownership context, and no unintended access change.

Have these details ready

  • The team's operational purpose
  • Employees who should be members
  • The supervisor or accountable manager

Run the workflow

  1. Check existing teams

    Review current names, members, and responsibilities. Avoid duplicate teams that differ only by abbreviation.

  2. Create the team

    Enter a durable name and description tied to function, location, trade, or service line rather than a temporary project nickname.

  3. Add members

    Use Add Member to select active employees who actually work in this group. Confirm each person's primary manager and location remain accurate.

  4. Review operational impact

    Check how the team will be used in scheduling, filters, reporting, approvals, workflow assignment, and any permission model.

  5. Save and validate

    Create Team or Save Team, reopen it, verify membership, then test a team-filtered schedule/report or assignment.

Check your work

Do not call the workflow complete until these statements are true.

  • The team has a unique purpose and owner
  • Only intended active employees are members
  • A team-based filter or assignment returns expected people

If something does not look right

One employee belongs to several groups

Use supported membership while keeping primary management and scheduling responsibility clear.

Removing a member affects open work

Reassign active tasks, approvals, schedules, and workflows before changing membership.
