Mapping teams to resources

In addition to assigning a team to a resource (such as a workload or job) while you create the resource, you can use the Teams page to map teams to resources.

To map a team to an object, you must be a member of the team and have the manage teams permission for that type of object.
You can assign teams to many items that you create. Teams can be assigned when you create an item in the associated Create New item window. Teams can also be mapped to objects with the object mapping security feature as described here. When a team is assigned to an item, such as a project, only team members with the appropriate permissions can interact with the affected item.
Note: All user-created resources are automatically assigned to the System Team. Because the System Team's Administrator role has all permissions that are granted for all Standard security types, System Team users with that role automatically have all permissions for all objects. Initially, only the admin user is assigned to the Administrator role. Neither the System Team nor the admin user can be deleted.
  1. On the left navigational panel, click Teams.
  2. Select a team from the list of teams.
  3. Under Team Object Mappings, in the View list, select the object type, such as Project.
  4. From the Type list, select the security type.
    Types for the current object type are available. For information about security types, see Table 1.
  5. Click Add.
    A list of user-created objects that are not already assigned is displayed.
  6. Select the check boxes for the objects to assign to the team and then click OK.
Teams that are mapped to objects are displayed on the associated Security page for the object.
