Teams

The add-on allows the user to group users in teams, that can be used for purposes like sharing reports with a group, timesheet approver teams, creating timesheet reports for a group and others.

This article explains how to create, modify, share and use teams.

How to Use Teams

• Sharing a Report: While sharing a saved report from My Saved Reports page, you can share the report with created Teams

• Time Tracking Report: While creating a Time Tracking report from the report designer interface, you can use a team’s name instead of adding individual users in the ‘Users and Teams Filter’

• Timesheet Approval Hierarchy: While adding users for a timesheet approver, you can select a team instead of individual users
  
  

• Other Reports: Once a team is created, a field named ‘Time Entry: Team’ becomes available in the Fields list on the report designer interface and the field can be used in different reports. An example is shown below
