Departments
The Departments module helps organize employees into different units within the organization. It allows users to create, manage, and export department data efficiently.
Adding a department
To add a new department:
- Click “Add Department.”

- Select a parent department if applicable.
- Click “Save” to finalize the addition.
Managing Departments
Users can view department details by clicking the “View” button under the Action column.
The department list displays existing departments along with their parent department (if any).
Department Views
The Department module offers two distinct ways to view the organizational structure:
1. Table View
- The default display format presents the departments in a structured table.
- It includes columns for Department Name and Parent Department, allowing users to see hierarchical relationships in a list format.
- Each row represents a department, with an option to view department details.
- The table allows sorting and searching to quickly locate specific departments.
2. Hierarchy View
- Provides a graphical representation of the department structure, visually connecting parent and child departments.
- Departments appear as boxes connected by lines, representing their hierarchical placement within the organization.
- This view helps users better understand reporting structures and department relationships.
- Users can switch between Table View and Hierarchy View using the toggle button in the top-right corner.
Both views offer flexibility in managing and analyzing department structures within the organization.
Exporting Departments
- Click the “Export” button to download department data as an XLSX file.
- The exported file contains details of all departments, including their hierarchy and associated parent departments.
This module ensures streamlined department management, making it easier to structure the organization.
