Team Management
Group employees into named teams so they can be used together elsewhere in Manpower (for example, when building team schedules).
Overview
Team Management lets you create teams, give each team a name, and assign employees as members. A team in ANTE is a simple named group of people β there is no separate team leader, department, or status to set. You manage everything from one place: a list of teams, and an Add / Edit page for each team.
To open it, go to Manpower β Team Management. Access requires the Team Management permission; without it the page is hidden.
The Team List
The Team Management page shows every team in a table with three columns:
- Team Name β the name you gave the team (sortable).
- Members β how many employees are in the team (for example, "5 members").
- Created β the date the team was created.
From this page you can:
- Add Team β the button at the top right of the table opens the Add Team page.
- Open a team β click any team row to open its Edit Team page, where you manage the name and members.
If no teams exist yet, the table shows "No teams found. Create your first team to get started."
Common Tasks
Creating a Team
Step 1 β Go to Manpower β Team Management.
Step 2 β Click the Add Team button (top right of the table). This opens the Add Team page.
Step 3 β Under Team Information, enter the Team Name. This is the only required field.
Step 4 β Under Team Members, click Add Employees to open the Add Team Members dialog. In the dialog you can:
- Search employees by name.
- Filter by Branch, Department, and Role.
- Select the employees you want to add.
Then click Add to Team to add the selected people to the new team.
Step 5 β Review the members listed under Team Members. Remove anyone you added by mistake using the remove action on their row.
Step 6 β Click Create Team to save. You'll be returned to the team list.
π‘ You must enter a team name before adding employees β if the name is blank when you confirm the dialog, ANTE asks you to enter the team name first.
Editing a Team
Step 1 β On the Team Management page, click the team you want to edit.
Step 2 β Change the Team Name if needed under Team Information.
Step 3 β Click Update Team to save the name change.
Adding Members to an Existing Team
Step 1 β Open the team from the team list.
Step 2 β In the Team Members section, click Add Employees.
Step 3 β In the Add Team Members dialog, search and/or filter by Branch, Department, or Role, select the employees, then click Add to Team.
The new members are saved immediately and appear in the Team Members table β you don't need to click Update Team for member changes to take effect. Employees already in the team can't be added again.
Removing a Member
Step 1 β Open the team from the team list.
Step 2 β In the Team Members table, use the remove action on the member's row.
The member is removed immediately.
Deleting a Team
Step 1 β Open the team from the team list.
Step 2 β Click Delete Team (top right of the Edit Team page).
Step 3 β Confirm in the dialog. Deleting a team removes all of its members from the team and cannot be undone.
Team Members Table
When you open or build a team, members are listed with these columns:
- Name β the employee's name.
- Position β the employee's job position.
- Department β the employee's department.
- Joined β the date the employee was added to the team (shown on existing teams).
Tips and Best Practices
- Pick clear names β the team name is how the team is identified everywhere, so make it descriptive.
- Member changes are instant on existing teams β adding or removing members on a saved team takes effect right away; only the team name needs the Update Team button.
- Use the dialog filters β when adding many people, narrow the list by Branch, Department, or Role before selecting.
