Introduction #
The Team Panel in Kaamfu is the second panel in the Main Navigation Pane on the left sidebar. It provides centralized access to worker-related data including backlogs, work journals, and screenshots. This panel helps team leads and admins oversee their teams, and allows individual workers to view their own workday activity.
Why This Feature Matters #
The Team Panel is designed to simplify team management and visibility. It gives users a structured way to access workday data, manage workers, and review performance information—all in one place.
Here’s why this feature is valuable:
- It consolidates worker activity data into a single view.
- It enables managers to monitor their team’s productivity.
- It allows every worker to stay informed about their own activity and tasks.
The Team Panel ensures transparency, accountability, and easy navigation across all roles.
Who Should Read This #
The Team Panel is relevant for everyone in a Kaamfu workspace.
This article is useful for:
- Crownliners (Admins): Who can see and manage all employees in the workspace.
- Midliners and Upliners: Who can view and oversee only their direct downline workers.
- Frontliners (Workers): Who can access only their own backlog, screenshots, and work journal.
Understanding how this panel functions helps every role use Kaamfu more effectively.
Feature Overview #
The Team Panel allows users to manage worker visibility and performance within their workspace. It appears as the second option in the Main Navigation Pane.
Its behavior varies based on role:
.
.
- A new organization owner sees only themselves until workers are added.
- A new worker also sees only their own data, unless promoted or made an assigner.
Within the Team Panel, users can view worker lists, access backlogs, open work journals, and monitor screenshots—all within the same interface.
Key Elements of the Team Panel #
The Team Panel is composed of several key sections and tools that help users monitor and manage work efficiently.

- The list begins with the profile owner at the top, followed by their direct downline.
- Each worker row shows their name, avatar, and current task.

Role-Based Views #

This ensures that visibility and control align with organizational structure and responsibilities.
