Delete a Team

Delete a Team

Deleting a team removes it from your organisational hierarchy in Teamgage. This is commonly used when a team no longer exists, has been merged into another team, or your organisational structure has changed.
Before deleting a team, it's important to understand what will happen to any team members, managers and reporting relationships associated with that team.

What Happens When a Team is Deleted?

When a team is deleted:
  1. The team is removed from your organisational hierarchy
  2. Any direct members of the team are automatically moved to the parent team
  3. Managers assigned to the deleted team will no longer have access to that team
  4. Historical reporting data remains available within Teamgage
  5. The deletion can be reversed if completed unintentionally

Example

If the following structure existed:
  1. Sales
    1. Australian
      1. South Australia
Deleting the South Australia team would automatically move all team members into the Australian Team. Those employees would become direct members of the Australian Team instead of members of the South Australia sub-team.
If those employees should belong elsewhere, you can move them to another team or remove them from Teamgage after the team has been deleted.

How to Delete a Team

  1. Log into the Teamgage platform
  2. Go to Teams > Teams List from the left-hand side navigation
  3. Locate the team you wish to delete
  4. Click the drop-down arrow under Actions
  5. Select Delete
  6. Confirm the deletion

Here's What It Looks Like


Restoring a Deleted Team

If a team is deleted unintentionally, it can be restored. Find out how to restore a team here.

Before You Delete a Team

Consider the following questions:
  1. Does the team still have active members?
  2. Should those members be moved to another team first?
  3. Do managers need access to a different team after the change?
  4. Would renaming or restructuring the team be more appropriate than deleting it?
In many cases, organisations choose to rename or restructure a team rather than permanently remove it from their hierarchy.
  1. Create a New Team
  2. Edit a Team Name
  3. Moving a Team in Your Organisational Hierarchy
  4. Restore a Team
