Department

Every user belongs to a department (see Create, View and Edit a User). Each department has a category: Processing, Sales or Subsales. The category decides:

  • which positions (Tagging) a user of the department can have;
  • which KPI page the department's members are scored on: IMS Processing, Sales or Subsales;
  • which share of the Yearly Bonus the members get.

Users can only see the users of their own department, unless their role can view all users.

To open it: in the left menu, click Setting > Department.
