How to create and manage teams
Applies to user roles: Account Owner
Available on platforms: Vatix Workspace web app
A team is a way to group users for shared visibility and management. A team has members and can have one or more Admins. A Team Admin is a user who has been given admin rights over a specific Team.
For Managers, being a Team Admin gives visibility of supported items assigned to users in that team.
Teams are used across:
- Lone Working (alarm visibility, device assignment, Alarm Response Profiles)
- Audits (a Manager who is the admin of a team can see all audits assigned to users in their team)
- Tasks (a Manager who is the admin of a team can see all tasks assigned to users in their team)
Teams don't apply to Events. Visibility in Events is controlled through the collaborator concept instead.
