Broadcast Teams is a feature that allows LAs to create and assign users to teams within Broadcast. This helps to organise users efficiently and customise File Requests so they can be limited to specific teams within your Local Authority.
Why Create Teams?
Creating Teams in Broadcast helps Local Authorities organise their staff more effectively. More importantly, it gives you control over who can access specific File Requests. When generating a File Request for schools, you can restrict visibility to just the relevant team(s) within your LA, helping to keep workflows focused and information secure.
Creating a Team
To access Broadcast Teams, navigate to Admin and select the Manage Teams button from the Teams panel.
When creating a team, you'll be required to enter a team name and team code. The team code is an abbreviated version of the full team name; however, it cannot exceed 5 characters. You can also add an optional description to your team. Click Create Team, and you can then begin to add users to it.
Adding Users to Your Team
To add users to a created team, select your team from the All Teams section on the left-hand side. From here, you can click on the Select user(s) drop-down and add any user who has Broadcast access in your Local Authority.
You can also remove a user from a team by clicking the X icon alongside their name.
Please note that any user added to a team will be able to see all past File Requests that were assigned to that team.
