If you mistakenly clicked the “I don’t have a manager” button in Teamflect, don’t worry — you can easily correct this. Using the Relationships feature, you can restore your reporting line by adding your manager back without needing IT or admin intervention.

Follow These Steps to Add Your Manager Back in Teamflect

Step 1: Go to the "My Team" Section

From your homepage in the Teamflect app, scroll to My Team and click the “Add Relationship” button.

Step 2: Select Manager and Send Request

In the popup titled Create new relationship, choose a relationship type that matches "Manager–Direct Report". This is often labeled as Manager but can vary depending on your organization's setup.

Type in your Manager's name.

If managerial access is enabled, you’ll click “Send Request” to submit for approval.
