Post-Installation
After enabling the module, review the module permissions and assign them to the correct roles.
Go to the permissions page and configure access for users who should be allowed to view or administer team setup records.
The module provides permissions for accessing and administering the team setup functionality. Only trusted administrative roles should be granted full management access.
After permissions are configured, administrators can open the team setup listing page and begin creating teams.
From the team listing page, administrators can add a new team, enter the team name, enter the team description, and assign users as team members.
Existing teams can be edited or deleted from the same management interface.
