ℹ️ This feature is only accessible to Administrators of the deal room.

Teams are important for Room management because they help to categorise bidders for reporting. They are also for Q&A. People in the same Team can see all the questions that other people in their Team have asked.

Sub-teams are created within the parent Team when people are to have different document access privileges, security settings for files or Question subjects to others already in the team. People in Sub-teams still belong to the same parent Team. This is especially important to note for Q&A purposes.

💡Tip: Admins cannot be added or moved into Sub-teams.
