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

  1. Go to Dashboard -> Teams -> New Team
  2. Enter a team name
  3. Assign a team manager (must be an existing WoPora user with Manager or higher role)
  4. Optionally assign the team to a location
  5. Add a description (optional)
  6. Click Save

Adding Members to a Team

  1. Open the team
  2. Click the Members tab
  3. Click Add Member
  4. Search for the employee by name
  5. Click Add

Employees can belong to more than one team.

Team Manager

The designated team manager:

  • Receives notifications for team-related events (timesheet submissions, leave requests, scheduling conflicts)
  • Can approve timesheets for team members
  • Is the default approver for leave requests from team members

Teams in Scheduling

When creating or viewing the roster:

  • Filter shifts by team to see only the relevant team's roster
  • View team-level coverage at a glance

Teams in Reporting

All reports that support location filtering also support team filtering:

  • Labour Cost --- Break down cost by team
  • Timesheet Approvals --- See only a team's submitted timesheets
  • Leave Calendar --- View leave across a specific team

Archiving a Team

  1. Open the team
  2. Click Archive
  3. Confirm

Archived teams are removed from active scheduling and filter dropdowns but still appear in historical reports.
