Departments

This page is where you manage your organization's department list. Departments are used for user assignments, workflow rules, and reporting across the platform.

Managing Your Department List

From this page, you can:

  • View all configured departments
  • Add new departments
  • Remove departments you no longer need

How Departments Are Used

Departments are referenced in several areas of the platform:

  • You can assign users to departments for organizational tracking
  • Workflow rules and routing logic can reference departments
  • Reports and analytics can be filtered by department
  • Permissions and visibility settings can be scoped to specific departments

Saving Changes

Important: After adding or removing departments, click Save Changes to commit your updates. Changes are not automatically saved and will be lost if you navigate away without saving.

Best Practices

When managing departments:

  • Use clear, consistent naming conventions
  • Consider how department changes might affect existing user assignments
  • Review workflow configurations that reference specific departments
  • Coordinate department changes with your team to avoid disruptions

Initial Synchronization

Your department data is imported from Entra ID during setup. Keep in mind:

  • This is a one-time import, not an ongoing sync
  • After the initial import, you manage the list manually
  • Future changes in Entra ID will not automatically update this list
