Groups help you organize your team and control supervision and approval workflows.

Groups in TrackingTime allow you to organize your team into smaller units, such as departments, squads, or functional teams to simplify user management and supervision. Each group will have a supervisor and each supervisor is responsible for reviewing timecards, approving time off requests, and overseeing their group’s activity.

Overview

Roles: all roles | Business Feature

Under Settings>Groups you will see a list of all existing groups, their assigned supervisors, and the users belonging to each group.


People without groups

At the bottom of the Groups overview page, you will find all users who are not currently assigned to any group. This section is intended to help administrators quickly assign users to the correct teams and ensure proper approval workflows.

⚠️ Users can only belong to one group at a time.

Create Groups

How to create a Group:

  1. Click on + Add new in the top-right corner of the Groups screen.
    This opens the group creation panel.

  2. Under Group name, enter the name of the group (e.g., Backend, Support, Marketing).

  3. In the "People in this group" section you will be able to use the + button to add users.

  4. Add Supervisors: Supervisors are users who are authorized to approve Timecards and Time off requests.

  5. Once done, click Save.

⚠️ Users can only belong to one group. If you add a user to the new group, they will automatically be removed from their previous group.

Edit Groups

Select any existing group from the Groups list to view or edit its details.

From here, you can:

  • Change the group name

  • Add or remove users

  • Add or remove supervisors

⚠️ At the moment, it is not possible to generate reports by group, nor assign projects or tasks to a group. Currently, groups only allow assigning employees.

These features are under development and will be available in future updates.

Delete a Group

How to delete groups:

  1. Open the group’s detail page and scroll to the bottom.

  2. Click Delete group.

  3. Before deleting, you will be asked to confirm: click on Delete. Users previously assigned to the group will be moved to “People without groups.”
