Organization Settings

Configure your organization's structure — companies, locations, and departments. This forms the foundation for rostering, time tracking, and payroll.

Organization Hierarchy​

Your organization is structured in three levels:

LevelDescription
CompanyTop level. Maps to a legal entity with a business ID.
LocationA physical work site under a company.
DepartmentA team or area within a location.

Every employee, shift, and payroll record is tied to this hierarchy.

Each location can have its own kiosk terminal for on-site clock-in and clock-out — see Kiosk.

Locations are also the unit of access control: Supervisors and Managers only see the locations they are assigned to through their employee record (see User Roles & Access).

Managing Departments​

  1. Select a location from the organization view.
  2. Click Add Department.
  3. Enter the department Name (required).
  4. Click Save.

Departments are used for:

  • Shift assignment and filtering
  • Calendar color-coding on the roster view
  • Reporting breakdowns in payroll and timesheets

Deactivation​

Companies, locations, and departments can be deactivated rather than deleted.

  • Deactivated entities are hidden from dropdowns and selection lists.
  • All historical data (shifts, worklogs, payroll records) is preserved.
  • You can reactivate an entity at any time if needed.

To deactivate, open the entity and click Deactivate.
