# Managing a team

> Add members, set team defaults and labels, and manage the content a team's agents work with.

A team groups people, agents, content, and tasks for a focused area of your business, such as Finance or AP. Owners and admins manage who belongs to it, the defaults its agents follow, and the documents and files agents can read.

<Note>
  Most actions on this page are limited to **Owners** and **Admins** of the team (or workspace admins). Members can use the team but not change its membership or settings.
</Note>

## Members and roles

Each team member has a role that sets what they can do inside the team.

| Role       | What they can do                                                      |
| ---------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Owner**  | Full control, including transferring ownership and deleting the team. |
| **Admin**  | Manage members, settings, labels, and content.                        |
| **Member** | Use the team's agents, tasks, and content.                            |

### Add a member

You add people who are already in your workspace. To bring a new person into the workspace first, see [Workspaces and people](/admin/workspaces-people).

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the team's Members surface">
    From the team header, open **Members** (or go to **Settings → Access → Manage members**).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a member">
    Click **Add member**, pick an existing **Workspace member**, and choose a **Role** (Owner / Admin / Member).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Adjust later">
    Change a member's role inline, or remove them from the team.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>
  Personal teams and the **Company** team don't add members here — everyone in the workspace is already in the Company team, and personal teams belong to one person. Manage workspace-wide membership from [Workspaces and people](/admin/workspaces-people).
</Info>

<Warning>
  Assigning the **Owner** role prompts an **ownership-transfer** confirmation. Removing a member runs a lifecycle impact check for their assigned work, owned content, and run-as automations, and lets you reassign that work to a replacement before they leave. Review it before confirming.
</Warning>

## Team settings

Open **Settings** from the team header to manage how the team behaves.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="General" icon="pencil">
    Edit the team's **icon**, **name**, **identifier**, and **description**, then **Save**. The identifier (Team ID) appears in metadata.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Task defaults" icon="circle-check">
    Set the **completion policy** that new tasks in this team inherit:

    * **Human confirms** — agents send finished work to **Needs Review** instead of marking it done. A person approves before the task moves to Complete.
    * **Agent can complete** — agents may mark their own work done.

    This default applies to **new tasks only**; existing tasks keep their current setting. See [Reviewing and approving agent work](/tasks/review-approve) for how Needs Review works.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Access" icon="users">
    Review the team's access scope and **Manage members** (see [Members and roles](#members-and-roles) above).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Labels" icon="tag">
    Manage the **labels** used to tag this team's tasks, plus shared workspace labels, in the label manager. Labels are color-coded and filterable on the [Tasks](/tasks/overview) views.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Workspace usage" icon="chart-bar">
    See how much the team is using: number of **documents**, **files**, and **storage used**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Danger zone" icon="triangle-alert">
    **Archive** or **Delete** the team. Both run an impact check first.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

<Warning>
  **Archiving** or **deleting** a team affects its tasks, content, and any agents scoped to it. These actions are disabled for managed teams (personal and Company). Read the impact check before you confirm.
</Warning>

<Note>
  Managed teams — your **personal** team and the workspace **Company** team — show read-only notices in places. They can't be renamed, archived, deleted, or have members added through these screens.
</Note>

## Team defaults in practice

The **Human confirms** vs **Agent can complete** choice is the main lever for how cautious a team is. A Finance team that drafts collections emails or vendor-bill recommendations usually keeps **Human confirms** on, so every output lands in **Needs Review** before anyone acts on it. A reporting team that only runs read-only SuiteQL might allow agents to complete on their own.

<Tip>
  Task defaults govern when a *task* is considered done. They're separate from **write approvals**, which pause an agent before it writes to NetSuite regardless of the team default. See [Approving and rejecting AI actions](/chat/approvals).
</Tip>

## Team content

Each team has its own **Content** — the documents, files, folders, and knowledge its agents can read and write alongside you.

* **Browse and filter** with the **All / Documents / Files / Knowledge** filter, and toggle **List** or **Grid**.
* **Create** with **New document**, **New folder**, or **Upload** (drag-and-drop).
* **Organize** by opening, pinning, or moving items into folders, and bulk download or delete.

The **Knowledge** filter shows only items that have been made searchable for agents. Turning a file into agent knowledge is what lets agents and automations pull it in as context.
