== Overview ==


Departments are a structured mechanism for grouping users. A user can only be associated with one department. For a user with multiple groups or teams that they're involved in you use Security Groups, however a user has to be involved in at least one department.


When you being using the system there will be two departments.
* General
* All n One


All users can go into General by default.


The All n One deparment is added to allow for easy recognition of All n One support accounts.


== Adding a Department ==


''Main Menu > System Access Management > System Management > Department - Add''

Please note that you should choose your Department names carefully as it possible to have two departments with very similar names which can lead to confusion.


== Editing a Department ==


Changing a departments name is very easy.

''Main Menu > System Access Management > System Management > Department - Edit > Choose the Department to edit''


== Changing a user's department ==

This is done by editing the seucrity details of the user.

''Main Menu > System Access Management [[File:016.png]] > User Administration > Edit User - Security Details Only > Search for the User > Primary Contact Details > Department''


== Changing many user's department en mass ==


There is a group update function available

# ''Main Menu > System Access Management [[File:016.png]] > System Management > Leave all the fields blank and click "Lookup User" > ''
# From "Please select a value type to update" change it to Department
# From the Department list choose the Department to change to
# Put a tick in all the users you want to move into this Department
# When done click "Save and continue" at the bottom
