  Hi,

  An access team is a special team that is only used to give access to a particular record in an ad-hoc way by end users. It is similar to sharing the record, however the access given by adding users to this team is pre-defined (Read/Update/Delete etc.) and the users that belong to this team are clearly seen via the sub grid on the form. 

  See http://blogs.msdn.com/b/crm/archive/2013/10/15/collaborate-with-new-access-teams.aspx

  Hope this helps,

  Scott

  My question is why microsoft provided a way to create a team by selecting the team type as "Acess" when it actually is created in the backend by adding the user subgrid.

  I see what you mean. You can create Access Teams manually for two reasons:

  1. Data migration - if you need to create an access team manually to add users

  2. Access teams are lightweight - so if you don't want the team roles and ownership functionality you can use access teams to group users and share records with. 

  Hope this helps,

  Scott
