Configuring runtime teams

Teams can be defined statically or dynamically, and can have a team of managers that are associated with them. During development in IBM® Process Designer, process authors create the teams for each process application. After a process application is installed on a Process Server in a different environment (test or production), you might need to add or remove users and groups in those teams so that the appropriate staff can access and perform the tasks that are generated by the process application.

1. Log in to the Process Admin Console, and then click Installed Apps to show the list of current snapshots on the server.
2. Click the snapshot that you want to work with.
3. From the top menu bar, click Team Bindings. A list of each team and the members of each team is displayed. The teams that are listed are the ones that were created for the process application during process development in IBM Process Designer.
4. All teams are listed. If there are multiple instances of teams that are resolved by the same team retrieval service, the instance name is displayed in brackets after the team name. For each team listed, you can perform the following actions:
   • The fields Members and Tasks show the number of members and number of task instances that are currently assigned to the team. You can use these values to help identify which teams might need more or less members.
   • Click Add Users.

     The Add Users window is displayed where you can enter a partial or complete user name in the Retrieve text box to display the users that are available on the current server. Select the check box for each user that you want, and click Add.

   • Click Add Groups.

     The Add Groups window is displayed where you can enter a partial or complete group name in the Retrieve text box to display the groups that are available on the current server. Select the check box for each group that you want, and click Add.

   • To remove a user or group from a team, click the Remove icon next to an existing user or group.
   • To designate the managers of a team, click the corresponding Select button, then select the appropriate team of managers.

     Click the name of a managers team to scroll to that team.

   • Any teams that are dynamically defined by a team retrieval service, include a Dynamic resolution enabled option that you can use to switch between dynamic and static resolution.
     • When Dynamic resolution enabled is selected, which is the default, the team is resolved dynamically by the associated service, and the statically defined list of users and groups are ignored.
     • When Dynamic resolution enabled is cleared, which happens when you use any of the controls to modify the static team list, the team is resolved statically.
     Tip: If the Dynamic resolution enabled option is cleared and then selected again, the team resolution service is immediately called to refresh the list of team members.
