Each team member can be assigned a colour that appears on their avatar and throughout the interface. This makes it easier to spot who is who at a glance, especially on pages like the calendar, actions list, and dashboard widgets.
Setting a Member's Colour
Go to Teams and select the team.
Click on the team member you want to update.
In their profile, find the Colour option.
Choose a colour from the available palette. The change takes effect immediately.
Where Colours Appear
Member colours are used throughout Manager Toolkit:
- Calendar events - catchups and reminders show the member's colour
- Actions list - assigned actions display the member's colour tag
- Dashboard widgets - charts and lists use the colour to distinguish between people
- Catchup history - the timeline uses colours for visual clarity
Choosing Effective Colours
Pick colours that are easy to tell apart. If you manage a large team, avoid assigning similar shades to people you work with frequently. The goal is fast visual recognition, so contrast matters more than preference.
Assign colours when you first add team members. Once you are used to seeing each person's colour across the app, it becomes a quick way to scan activity without reading every name.
