TEAMS OWNER FUNCTIONS

When you request a Teams site, you will be made the “owner” of the Teams site. Only “owners” may perform the following functions:

ADDING MEMBERS

  • ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ staff/faculty: type the first name and select the staff/faculty member from the list
  • ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ students: enter the students full cmail address: JaneDoe@cmail.carleton.ca

REMOVING TEAMS MEMBERS

As a Team owner you may remove Team members. Open Teams (app or ), click on the ellipsis to the right of the Teams site in question, as shown below, and select Manage Team. Then click the “x” next to the name of the member whom you wish to delete.

ADDING CHANNELS

Your Teams site comes with a default channel, General. Each channel has its own Conversation page and Files hierarchy. Team owners can add additional channels, but we recommend you start up with just the default General channel initially.

«Tasks» Tab: Using Planner with Teams

Your Teams site ownerÌýcan choose to add additional tabs. The Planner app is the only additional tab currently added when Teams sites are created.

Planner can be added to Teams as a Tab

The Planner app tab is initially labelled “Tasks”. After selecting this «Tasks» tab:

  • Each task can have a short description, a due date and be assigned to a Teams member.
  • Tasks can be organized into “buckets” — a single bucket, labelled “To do” is shown.
  • The status of open and completed entries can be reported on by clicking on “Charts”. A calendar can also be presented showing open entries.
  • If you have many “buckets”, the Teams site owner can add more than one “Planner” tab, grouping similar tasks under differently-named “Tasks” tabs.

TIP: Teams Owners can add more than one “Planner” tab, so they can group similar tasks under multiple “Tasks” tabs.
