Creating Teams

We’ve created a simple video tutorial on how to create teams. If you’d prefer to see images and text, scroll down and enjoy!

Teams are central to Yalla. You are able to separate and compartmentalize teams however you’d like. For instance, say you’re a 20 person company. 

You can have everyone be a part of just one team, or you can create multiple teams, for example, executives, accounting, marketing, development, etc.

To do this:

1. Click on “My Account”, which is found by the settings area which is found near the top left hand portion of your screen. It looks like this: 

2. Now click on Organization.

3. Now click on “Teams”

4. Hit the “+” sign in order to create a new team, and then enter the name of the team. Then start adding team members to each team by clicking in the box with the users or beginning to type their name. 

That’s it. You don’t have to hit save or anything. You’re teams will be created and you can see them by expanding your teams on your main board like this: 

You can repeat the process for as many teams as you’d like to create. If you do create teams, and a person is not assigned to a team, they will show up in a team called “Unassigned.”

You are also able to expand and collapse teams based on your visual preferences.

One thing to keep in mind is that you can actually assign tasks to the “Team” as a whole. If you don’t have a specific person to assign a task to, then you can just dump it on to the team board and let that team deal with it.

Feel free to rearrange the teams on the right side of your screen by dragging and dropping them into place.
