Teams

A team is a group of F2 users from different units within the same authority. This page describes the creation and maintenance of teams, while the purpose and use of teams are described here.

Teams are managed in the “Teams” dialogue. Click on Teams on the “Settings” tab in the main window. All users can open the dialogue and view teams, but teams can only be created by users with the “Team creator” privilege.

Click on New to create a team. In the dialogue, add:

  • Title.

  • Description.

  • One or more team administrators to maintain the team.

  • A synchronisation key if you want to automatically update the team. Synchronisation is often through AD, but can also be with other systems (e.g. cBrain’s M4 system).

  • A tick in the “Active” box to activate the team so it can be used on records and cases.

  • Team members, either individual users or distribution lists.
