👥 Understanding Team Management in tDoc
The Team Members module in tDoc provides a comprehensive system for managing your team's structure, member roles, and professional associates. This feature helps you maintain an organized workspace where each member has the appropriate permissions and access levels, ensuring smooth collaboration across your entire organization.
🚪 Accessing Team Members Management
To access your team's members management page:
- Navigate to your Team Workspace by selecting your team from the accounts dropdown
- Click on "Members" in the left sidebar menu
The members dashboard displays three main sections: Team Members, Pending Invites, and Professionals.
👤 Managing Team Members
🔍 Viewing Team Members
The Team Members table provides an organized view of all members with key information including:
- Profile pictures (or initials when no image is available)
- Full names
- Email addresses
- Roles within the team
- Current status
- Action options for each member
This gives you an immediate overview of your team structure and who has access to your workspace.
👑 Understanding Member Roles
tDoc uses a role-based permission system to control what actions team members can perform:
- Owner: Has full access to all settings and can perform any action
- Administrator: Can manage most settings and members but cannot delete the team
- Member: Has basic access to work within the team with limited administrative abilities
- Restricted: Has limited access to specific features as defined by administrators
Each role comes with a hierarchical permission level, which determines what actions a team member can take regarding other members.
