Managing company departments

With Leave Dates it is possible to organise your staff into departments.

Click the cog icon to enter the settings menu and then Departments.

Here you can:

• Add new departments
• Edit existing departments
• Delete departments

Adding New Departments

To add a new department, click on the Add Department button.

When you add a new department, initially no employees will be assigned to it. You can assign employees later by going into the settings->Employees menu. 

You can specify who should approve requests made by employees in this department. You can read more about this here - How to set up who approves new leave requests.

It is also possible to control what staff in each department can see in the wall chart.

Editing Existing Departments

Click on the department name to edit it. You can edit the department name and approvers.

If you rename a department which already has employees then those departments will remain with the newly named department.

Deleting Departments

Click on the bin icon next to the department name to delete it.

If you delete a department which an employee is already assigned to, the employee will become unassigned. 

Next

Now you have configured your departments, the next step is to set up allowances.
