    Description

      There is a lot of confusion between Teams and Groups. We need to consolidate the 2 concepts and better figure out how they relate to each other.

       

      Context 1: 

      I do think there needs to be more work into this feature for it to be as useful as a group however. It would have probably been less work to start with a group and then expand on that?

      Atlassian Team field can't but Groups can be:

      • Synced with IDP
      • Controlled by admin for user membership
      • Used to include multiple groups (not for assignment)
      • Used in automation rules
      • Used in project roles
      • Used in project permissions
      • Used in workflow

      Groups can't but Atlassian Team field:

      • Has a nice team page
      • Can display members in the mouseover (handy)
      • Can be used for resource forecasting in Advanced Roadmaps

       

      I am looking forward to this feature devloping to a point where I can just use it to replace the assignment structures I've had to put in place, it just feels like it's a while off.

      Context 2: 

      It would be must to integrate teams with user groups. We must have option to add users in team using user groups. Please confirm is it planned and coming.
