How to follow my team

What is it for?​

It shows whoever manages a team the deadlines of the people who report to them, so nothing slips: holidays still to be scheduled, many holiday days still to take, or missing training. It is read-only: you do not approve or change anything here.

When to use it?​

  • You want a quick look at what is overdue in your team.
  • You are going to talk to an employee about their holidays or training.

Where to find it?​

My space › My team. The menu only appears to someone with at least one person reporting to them.

Before you start​

  • You must be someone's Manager: the Manager field on the employee record must have your name. The HR manager fills it in. See How to organise departments and see the organisation chart.
  • The steps were done end to end with the Management profile, as the manager of one employee. It applies to any profile that has a team: a Worker without a team does not see the menu.

How to use it​

Open My space › My team. The To do in my team screen shows:

  • at the top, the To do card, with the number of overdue items and how many fall due in the next 30 days;
  • in What is pending, one line per item, with What, Detail and Due.

Then deal with each item in the right place, because the lines do not open any record.

Expected result​

You see the deadlines only of the people who report to you. In the example, for one employee:

  • Holidays still to be scheduled, with the days still to schedule, overdue since 15/04/2026;
  • High holiday balance, with the holiday days still to take;
  • Training hours missing, with the hours still missing out of the year's 40.

Important notes​

  • What this screen does not show. It does not show salaries, amounts or health reasons. Nor does it show absence requests awaiting a decision: to decide them, see How to approve holiday and absence requests.
  • Read-only. Correcting a person's data is done by Human Resources.
  • Has the manager changed? The menu and the lines follow the Manager field. If someone no longer reports to you, that person's lines stop appearing.
  • The same 40-hour training rule applies as in the article How to track the year's mandatory training hours.

Common problems​

I do not see My team​

  • Symptom: in My space there is no My team menu.
  • Cause: no employee has your name in the Manager field, or your employee record is not linked to your user.
  • What to do: ask Human Resources to fill in the Manager field on your team's records.
