In addition, an organization may have teams with names like Network, Unix, Database Administration, Application Development, etc.

The members of a team are defined by relating people to it. A person can be a member of more than one team. A person cannot be made a member of a team, however, unless he/she has the Specialist role of the account to which the team belongs.

Once a person has become a member of a team, he/she is able edit the Team record to specify who the team’s coordinator is. The manager of a team is able to update all fields of his/her Team record. It is not necessary for a team’s manager to be a member of the team.

Only a person who has the Account Administrator role of an account can maintain all teams of that account.
