How to create departments

What are departments?

Departments represent the organizational structure of the company. For example, HR department, logistics department, etc. Departments are used to define user permissions within the QVALON app.

By default, the system will create three departments. They cannot be deleted, but they can be renamed.

  1. 1001 Operations. A region level user of this department will be considered as a regional manager, a division level user as division manager and such.
  2. 1002 Undefined. All users who were not assigned to any other department will be assigned to this one.
  3. 1003 Store managers. The system will automatically assign this department to all users with the Store Manager role.

Additional departments can be added as required. For example, HR, quality control, security service, etc.
