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.

All users can go into General by defaultif no other departments are created.  The All n One department is added to allow for easy recognition of All n One support accounts. = Department fields =  [[File:department_001.png|800px]]  == Details ==  === Name ===  The name can be anything but will be alphabetically sorted. === Manager ===

This is the Id of a bxp user who is the manager of the department. This access will give that manager the ability to perform HR reporting and actions on all users in that department.   === Assistant Manager ===  The same as the manager field and officially nominated Assistant manager. The All n One deparment Manager and Assistant Manager will have the same privilege levels when interacting with HR records for that department.   == Categorisation ==  === Sort Order ===  For listing functions this can be used to over ride the alphabetic default sort ordering applied to a department list.   === Parent Department ===  For a hierarchical listing of departments it is possible to specify a Parent Department. If no parent is selected then the department is considered to a be a root department. It is added possible to allow link departments using this approach. Linked department can easily be separated again later. === TOM - FTE ===  Target Operating Model is detailed here. [[Human_Resources_Management_-_Target_Operating_Model_(TOM)]]   === TOM - Roles ===  Each entry in this field is a combination of Role and amount of that role required. This approach also feeds the TOM reporting model possible in bxp.   === HR Forms ===  This lists any dedicated forms required by the Department for easy recognition of All n One support accountsit's normal operation. These forms will be presented to users through their ESS. [[Employee_Self-Service_(ESS)]]   === Icon ===  When visually displaying the departments it is possible to assign an icon to the Department. This icon is either a number from 1 to 15 or a url for the image, usually from the custom folder. [[Custom_File_Uploader]]  [[File:department_icons_001.png|800px]] == Department ESS ==  It is possible to have an overriding ESS Data section by department where specific departments need to have a different ESS from the system level ESS.[[Employee_Self-Service_(ESS)]]   = Functions =
