Before you create Teams

Before you can create a Team, you will need to check two things:

1. Your User has the correct Roles & Permissions!

What roles and permissions will you need?

• Access to Manager Web Portal as a Web User
• Full Tenant Admin or Team Admin roles.

Not sure if you have the right permissions or where to find permissions? Check out the following articles:

• Permissions & Roles on Obzervr Manager
• Permissions & Roles for Teams on Obzervr Manager

2. You have configured Obzervr Manager i.e. you have created Users, Locations and Work Template.

How to create Teams

1. Open Obzervr Manager.
2. Navigate to Security and select Teams.
3. On Team page, click on Create button.
4. Give the Team a Name, add a Description if you want (i.e. Groundwater Sampling) and add Users to the Team.
5. Add Work Template and Locations to the Team. These are the required fields to create a Team. You can use the map to draw a polygon around an area to include all the Locations.
6. If you want, you can add Trip Templates and Test Plans required for Team.
7. Click to Save. You have created a Team.
8. The Team Name and Description will be displayed in Teams list.

Some key notes about Teams:

• Test Plans will need to be added to the Team as well as the Work Template. Even if you only have one Test Plan, it will need to be added to each Team so that Capture Users can use the Test Plan to add samples.
• You can add Work Templates to the Team. When the Team is selected, only the relevant Work Template will show.
• You can also add Functional Location Types to the Team. Using Functional Location Types is another way to add a large group of Functional Locations to the Team. Not only will you see the Functional Location you attach, but you will also be able to access any of the Functional Location which has the Functional Location Type that you have added to the Team. Wondering what Functional Location Types are and why we use them? See more here: How to add more information to a location using Attributes.
