Departments
Departments can help split the reporting between major parts of an organisation. "Department" is a posting attribute, setting up a department can be useful for absence management and reporting purposes.
The department code should be short and capitalized, this is a unique reference field.
The description field is the name of the department.
Departments have the ability to be assigned to a parent department.
The manager resource field should be the department manger, this resource will have access to the team on the absence manager.
The legacy reference field identifies previous codes under the department names.
Resources
- Resources can be assigned to departments, this will default the department field upon document entry. These resources will also appear within the absence manager department groups.
Sub departments
- The sub departments consist of all other departments with a parent department set to the current selected department.
