How to Create, Edit, or Delete a Team Template

If you frequently work with the same people or the same roles on projects, you can create a team template. Once created, a team template can be included on any project team. If you know the roles you'd like on a project but not the actual members assigned to the role, you can create a team template with roles as member placeholders.

How to Use a Team Template

How to Create Workgroup Roles

Privileges are granted on both the workgroup level and on the project level. For example, you may have the workgroup role of a member, but on a project you may have a variety of different roles.

Roles may differ from company to company. Please contact your company administrator about the roles available to you.
