Grammar-check is killing me! Help!
My grammar checker is killing me with this simple sentence! Can someone tell me if the checker or I am right?
Here's the sentence:
"I will forward the details of this issue to our inventory team who have been working to resolve this issue."
The computer flags have prompting that it should be has. But team is plural so then I should use have, correct?
Thanks.
