Whether you have a large or small company, soon you have to deal with teams to organise work well. With HoorayHR, we want to ensure a ‘great-place-to-work’, where there is as much self-management as possible.
Teams: divide the work and create an overview
Within HoorayHR we use Teams. By classifying your colleagues by team, you not only create oversight but also the possibility of having requests handled by team leaders, saving a lot of work for the administrator, but providing colleagues with their answer faster when it comes to leave, for example.
Setting up teams and assigning team leaders
Creating teams
To create a team, go to ‘Teams’ via ‘Colleagues’. Here you can create several teams at once and assign one or more team leaders to a team. If you assign several team leaders, all team leaders receive the leave requests from the corresponding team members.
Adding team members
After creating teams, you can start assigning team members to a team. You do this by going to a colleague's ‘profile’ and indicating in the corresponding profile field which team a colleague belongs to. You can also assign colleagues to multiple teams.
Note: Avoid adding a team leader as a member to their own team. If this is done, this colleague would be considered a team leader of themselves and able to approve their own requests (e.g. leave requests, expense claims, etc.).
Hint: If team leaders need their a separate team leader who is not an administrator, we recommend creating a separate team for the Management (MT).
Filtering overviews by teams
Once you have set up teams, you can filter by teams in many sections. This allows you to compare dates per team or in the ‘Calendar’ you can directly see availability per team.
