Teams
Teams
Create and manage teams in WoPora to organise employees and streamline scheduling and reporting.
Teams
Teams group employees together for scheduling, reporting, and management purposes. A team typically maps to a department, shift group, or functional unit (e.g., "Front of House", "Warehouse Day Shift"). Navigate to Dashboard -> Teams.
Creating a Team
- Go to Dashboard -> Teams -> New Team
- Enter a team name
- Assign a team manager (must be an existing WoPora user with Manager or higher role)
- Optionally assign the team to a location

Adding Members to a Team

Employees can belong to more than one team.

The designated team manager:
