Create Departments

Departments in the BackOffice are designed for reporting purposes, allowing you to group items or categories for streamlined tracking and analysis. This article will guide you through creating a department in the BackOffice.

Creating Departments in the BackOffice

1. Log into the BackOffice and click Items from the left-hand navigation menu. From the Items module, select the Departments tab at the top of the page.

2. Click the Create Department button in the upper-right corner to open the Create Department page.

3. Give your new department a name.

4. Once you've entered the department name, click the Create button to save your new department.

Note: Departments are for reporting purposes and do not affect how items are displayed in the Register. To assign items or categories to departments, you can use the bulk assignment tool available in the BackOffice or during item and category creation. For more details, reference the Bulk Assign Items to Departments article.
