Team

The Team tab displays the users with their roles assigned to the team of a specific Agreement. ICM allows you to take workflow actions on approvers from the Progress view of theTeam tab itself so that you don’t need to navigate to the grid and list view to take these actions:

• Search any user by either using the Grid, Tile or Progress view.
• Add any user to the Team from either of the views.
• Remove any user from the Team.
• Reassign a user.
• Enable/ Disable approvers.
• View the graphical representation of the Agreement lifecycle through the Progress view. It displays the different states that the Agreement has been through and the actions taken on it by various team members.  
• View the Notes added by individual approvers by a mouse-hover on the individual Approver in Progress view to see the Notes added by him/her during approval or rejection. Hence, you get all the relevant details in one place, without navigating to multiple tabs to get this information.
• View if a user is defined by a rule or not, in the By Rule column. The column displays Yes with a hyperlink if the user is defined by a rule. Clicking the hyperlink opens a window with the team member’s name and all the rule details. Any team members added via Event Rule will have “By rule” column as “No”.

ICM also displays the time duration for pending tasks on the Teams tab of any entity that has a workflow. Displaying the days and hours for pending tasks allows the user to easily know how long a task has been pending with the approver, reviewer, deviation approver or the signatory. It is also displayed for individual team members (not groups) and active members who are enabled and at the current step.  

Let’s go through each view in detail.

Grid View:

Grid view dramatically reduces the time required to go through the complete list of team members to find a specific one. Through this view, you can easily refine your search for any specific team member. The search results are displayed in a tabular form. You can further sort your results by using Filter provided in every column. 

The time duration is displayed on mouse hover in the Action Status column for the applicable task. Both - the clock icon displaying the Task status and the Pending message are displayed in a single column, instead of displaying them in two different columns unlike the Progress and Tile views.

Follow these steps to search the log:

1. Click Agreement Management tile on My Dashboard. This opens the Agreements page.
2. Click View icon next to the Agreement, whose Team you want to manage.
3. Click Team in the left pane. This displays all existing team members along with their roles. By default, Grid is selected.
4. You can refine your search by selecting the Status provided:

• All: displays all the team members assigned to the Agreement team, irrespective of their roles.
• Approvers: displays the team members assigned as an Approver.
• Core: displays the team members assigned as a Primary and Secondary Owner.
• Extended: displays the team members assigned as a Business Owner, Observer and Reviewer.  
• Signatories: displays the team members assigned as Signatories.

5. The results matching your selection are displayed on the page in a tabular form.
6. You can refine your search further using the Refine Search field. For example, type initials of User Name who created the Agreement or type initials of the Team Role. This filters the results to display only those records that match your search.
7. Sort your search results by clicking the Filter icon provided in each column. Click Filter icon and choose options relevant to your search in the fields.

Tile View:

This view displays all the team members in the box with their respective roles. You can narrow down the search by selecting specific categories. In the Tile view, the time duration is displayed in days and hours reflecting the duration that the task has been pending for a user action.

You can perform following actions on the team members through Grid, Tile or Progress view:

• Reassign: click to reassign a different Approver for the Agreement in Waiting For Approval state. This takes the previously assigned Approver completely out of the Agreement lifecycle. While doing so you can add a note with the reason for reassigning the approver. It is helpful, if an assigned Approver is either the wrong person or is busy. 
• Enable: click to roll back the disabled user to enable state. Once enabled, relevant tasks can be assigned to the user.
• Disable: click to disable a specific user who is not required in the team at present. The disabled user still stays in the team and can be enabled anytime when needed.
• Remove: click to remove the user from the team, if required.

Progress View

The Progress view displays the graphical form of the Agreement workflow, from Draft to Executed state. This view contains three sections which displays different phases of an Agreement. The Progress view can be viewed only after the Primary Owner creates an Agreement. The complete workflow is displayed using two colour green and grey. In the Progress view, the time duration is displayed in days and hours reflecting the duration that the task has been pending for a user action.

The three sections of Progress view are:

• Generate -  this section displays Primary Owner and Secondary Owner with their names, if selected for the specific Agreement. By default, Generate section will be green as Agreement is created.
• Approval – this section displays different approvers for various steps in separate boxes. It also displays how many approvals are important for each Step for example, if at Step 1 there are 3 approvers assigned, but only 1 approval is needed then it will display 1 of 3 required. The Approval section stays in grey colour until any of the approver has approved the Agreement. If the Approver rejects the agreement, it still stays in grey colour. For example, if at Step 1 there are 2 approvers, the first approver accepts the agreement which turns the approver section in green colour. But if the second approver rejects it the approvers section again goes back to grey colour. The thumps up icon is displayed next to the approver who has approved the Agreement. If you hover over any user listed in this section, you can view the notes added by the user while taking an action.
• Check & Sign - this section displays external and internal signatories in different boxes.

To add a team member through Team tab follow the below steps:

1. Click next to Team. The Add User dialog box appears.

2. Click Select Role list to select a role.

3. Select a user from the user tiles. You can use scroll arrows to browse through the user tiles.

4. Click Add to add the user. The user name and the role appears as a tile.

5. Click , if you want to remove a user from the list.
