What are teams?

A Team in Smart Send is a logical grouping where one or more users can access shared resources. Teams are what is also sometimes referred to as Organizations in other systems - we simply call them Teams. A Team provide access to shared resources including:
  • Shipping labels - All team members can create and manage labels
  • Reports - Shared access to shipping analytics and performance data
  • Address book - Common contact and delivery address database
  • Carrier connections - Shared carrier agreements and settings
The main reason to have multiple users on a team is when multiple people need to access the Smart Send dashboard. All activities are logged on a per-user level, so you can track what each user did and when they did it.
Every Smart Send account requires at least one team, even for individual users. When you create your account, a team is automatically created for you. You can add more team members later or continue using the team as a single-user workspace.
