Settings

In this article, we give you an overview of all settings in the organisation dashboard and explain what you can manage in each section.

In Settings, you as an organisation admin decide how Oneteam looks and works for all employees. This is where you set the language, privacy, branding and shortcuts, among other things. You also manage the connections with other systems here.

Go to Organisation dashboard > Settings. The menu on the left shows the following sections:

  • General

  • Branding

  • Apps & Shortcuts

  • Integration

  • Email templates

  • Custom feeds

  • User properties

  • API keys

  • Webhooks

  • Admins

  • Structure

💡 Only organisation admins can manage the settings. Want your IT team to manage only the technical sections (Integration, Custom feeds, API keys and Webhooks)? You can do this with the 'Integrations' permission group. Read more in this article.

General

Language and privacy

Set the default language in which the organisation dashboard and the community are shown to employees. You also choose the default privacy settings here. Employees can always change these settings in their own profile.

  • Default phone number privacy: choose whether phone numbers are visible to 'everyone' or 'nobody'. Organisation admins can always see an employee's phone number, as long as it is in their profile.

  • Default date of birth privacy: choose whether the date of birth is visible to 'everyone', 'community' or 'nobody'. We never show the year of birth to employees. Organisation admins can always see the date of birth, as long as it is in the profile.

  • Default invitation setting: choose whether employees can invite each other to a chat: 'everyone', 'community' or 'nobody'. Organisation admins can always chat with employees, regardless of this setting.

  • Default last active privacy: choose whether employees' last activity is visible to 'everyone', 'community' or 'nobody'.

App visibility and access

Here you decide how employees get access to the app and what they can see of each other.

  • Access & invite: turn the QR code and invite link on or off. Employees use these to sign up for the app themselves. Read more in Manage employees manually.

  • Onboarding new employees: when enabled, new employees introduce themselves on the timeline.

  • Open app on the timeline: when enabled, employees see the timeline first when they open the app, instead of the Hub.

  • Visibility of employees and communities: when enabled, all employees and communities are visible to everyone in the organisation. When disabled, employees only see colleagues from the communities they are a member of

Company values

Add the values that define how your organisation works together. Employees can link these values to high-fives and timeline posts. This way, colleagues compliment each other based on your company values.

💡 Company values are not translated into other languages automatically.

Branding

Add a logo before you launch the app. This way, employees immediately feel at home in their own organisation's environment.

Under Theme you set your organisation's colours. You see a live preview of how the app will look for employees.

Apps & Shortcuts

Shortcuts let employees quickly open another app or website from Oneteam, for example their scheduling or leave system (such as PMT, Manus+ or Dyflexis). The page opens inside the app, so employees don't have to leave Oneteam. For each shortcut, you choose which community and/or function group can see it.

Want to change the order? Click and hold the two vertical lines in front of a shortcut's name and drag it up or down. The change is saved immediately.

You can also turn the following modules on or off here:

  • Academy

  • Colleagues

  • Documents

  • Events

  • Forms

  • Calendar

Integration

Here you manage the connection between Oneteam and your HR or scheduling system, such as AFAS, Nmbrs, PMT or Shiftbase. The integration automatically adds, updates and invites employees. You can find a separate article for each system in the help centre, such as AFAS.

Email templates

Here you customise the emails Oneteam sends to employees on behalf of your organisation, such as the invitation email. This way, the text matches your organisation's tone of voice.

Custom feeds

Custom feeds let you show information from external sources in Oneteam, so employees see these updates in one place too.

User properties

Create your own fields for employee profiles here, such as contract type or location. You can also use these properties to target audiences. Read more in Setting up and using custom user properties.

API keys

Create and manage API keys here. Use them to connect Oneteam to other systems or automation tools, such as Zapier or n8n. Never share an API key with people who shouldn't have access to it.

Webhooks

With webhooks, Oneteam automatically notifies another system when something happens, for example when a form is submitted. Learn how to set this up in Using webhooks in Oneteam.

Admins

Decide who is an organisation admin and create custom roles with specific permissions. This way, you only give colleagues access to what they need. Read more in Assign administrator roles.

Structure

Set up your organisation's structure in Oneteam here, such as communities and function groups. This structure determines, among other things, who sees which content and who an employee's manager is. Read more in Managing managers and primary assignments.
