Workgroups / Teams - Mobile Interface
The workgroup name that shows up in the primary navigation is configured during your site setup. The tab may be called Teams, Crews, Locations, or any term that aligns with your schedule implementation. For this article, we are using Teams as the workgroup name. So when you see Teams in the documentation, this term may be different for your implementation but the concepts are the same:
Teams allow you to group people together for ease of scheduling and communication. People are often put in teams by location, event, or type of work. For example, separate teams can be created for the cleaning crew, forklift drivers, and machine operators. This allows managers to more effectively schedule and communicate information. For example, when publishing shifts for the cleaning crew, notifications can be sent only to the people who are assigned to the Cleaning Crew team:
