Creating sub-teams

Use these steps to create a sub-team. You can specify a sub-team for any team that has a team type of HRORGUNIT.

  1. Select Maintenance > Security > Team Security > Team Sub-Type.
  2. Click Create New Entry.
  3. Specify this information:
    Name
    Provide a name for the sub-team.
    Description
    Provide a description for the sub-team. This field is optional.
    Level
    Provide a level for the sub-team. This is a free-form, numeric value based on your business requirements.
    Sub Team Hierarchy Type
    Click the database lookup and select a team type from the list.
  4. Click Save.
After creating a sub-team, ensure that its Team Hierarchy Type is set to HRORGUNIT. Sub-teams can only be assigned to parent teams with a Team Type of HRORGUNIT if both teams share the same hierarchy type.

Assigning a sub-team with a mismatched or undefined hierarchy type, such as None, triggers a validation error: Only teams of type HR Org Unit can have a subteam type.
