Add and manage groups and managers in QuickBooks Time
by Intuit• Updated 8 months ago
Learn how to add and manage groups and managers in QuickBooks Time.
A group is a set of team members who share certain characteristics such as geographical location, job function, or who work on the same job or for the same customer. Admins can assign a team member to be the manager of a select set of team members (a group).
Notes:
- Timesheet reports can include all team members or just the team members of a select group.
- Each team member can be a member of only one group. A manager can manage multiple groups.
- If a manager is also in the group they are managing, they’ll have managerial permissions over themselves.
- Managers of a group will have a Crew option in their QuickBooks Workforce to manage their group on the go.
