Chapter 6 Define a team

Teams are an important concept in Tercen.

Researchers are members of a team and as part of the team they create and own projects.

Teams have the following characteristics.

• A team is created by a user.
• The creator is the Administrator of the team.
• Teams are composed of members.
• Users can be members of many teams.
• Teams own a Library of Apps and a set Projects they are applied to
• Members have access permissions to control how they affect the things the team owns.

In Tercen you always work in a team. Even if it is just a single member of your personal team.

To create a team select the Teams tab on your personal home page.

Press the New Team button.

Configure the team on the administration page.

• Name the team
• Enter the user-name of any person you want to add to the team.
• Select their access permissions.
