Managing teams

A team is a collection of groups of users with assigned roles. Each team can consist of multiple groups of users, such as Database Administrators and Developers. Teams have assigned applications and allow groups of users access to particular applications and environments.

You can now provide access to teams to all applications created for your organization with a single-click. The teams who have access to all applications also get access to any new applications added to BRPM. 

The groups of users that form a team can have access permissions for various applications and can have different roles in different applications and application environments. Groups can be assigned different roles for each environment associated with the applications.

This topic consists of the following sections:

• Creating and editing teams
