In the OKR module, you can assign an OKR to a specific team and filter the main view by that team for a focused view. You can also display team stats on the *[Progress Dashboard](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918801225)** *page, receive team-specific notifications, and access additional team features.

> ℹ️ The teams in the OKR module are separate from those in the Teams module. You can't use OKR teams in other modules, nor can you use Teams module teams as OKR teams.

## Permissions

Only [permitted users](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918765815) can create, edit, and delete OKR teams:

- Jira Admin
- In-module Admin
- Users in roles with the granted **Manage all teams** permission (full team management) or **Create teams** (new teams creation only).

## Create a new OKR team

1. On the **Settings** > **Teams** page, click **+Add new team**.
  
2. **Name** your new team and customize colors.
3. **Add team members** manually or by importing them from Jira groups.
4. Optional: Customize the team icon, which will be displayed on the team's OKRs and in the OKR Overview. The letter in the circle is always the first letter of the team name.
5. Click **Create** to finish the process.

> ⚠️ Member roles for individual teams (Admin, Manager, User) are no longer available.

## Edit OKR team

1. On the **Settings** > **Teams** page, click **More actions** (**…**) next to the team you want to edit.
2. Select **Edit team**.
3. On the specific team’s page, you can:

![okr-edit-team.png](media://3550af7f-1208-48dc-8037-c1fdfd59924c)

- change the team’s name by [editing it inline](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918637324),
- change the team’s icon colors,
- **Switch to Jira groups**-based team members (only if you are a **team owner (creator)**).

As a team owner, you can switch between Jira group-based and individual member types. The app will remember your choice, but you cannot use both at the same time. When using the Jira group-based option, you assign a role to the entire group and can add multiple groups to a team.

Members are synced with Jira, so any additions or removals from the group will automatically update the team members section.

**Switch to individual members** if you want to add other, non-Jira group-based members.

## Delete OKR team

1. On the **Settings** > **Teams** page, click **More actions** (**…**) next to the team you want to edit.
2. Select **Delete**.

Alternatively: 

1. On the specific team’s page, click **More actions** (**…**) in the upper right corner.
2. Select **Delete**.
