Managing departments

To help organise your Timetastic account we recommend setting up departments that align with your internal structure.

You will also assign each department with a manager who deals with the resulting time off requests (although if necessary this can be overridden on an individual staff member basis).

You can add, edit or delete departments by navigating to:

SETTINGS > DEPARTMENTS

Adding a department

Click 'Add a new department'.

Type in the name of your new department, choose a manager from the drop down and set the maximum absent. Click 'Save'.

Editing 

Click on a department to make any updates.

Deleting

Click on the 'x' next to the department you'd like to delete. 

You will need to make sure all employees in the department have been moved to alternative departments before you'll be given a delete option.

You'll be given the option to move all employees into another department. Either select one department to move them into, or you can move them individually via the USERS page (see below).

Moving users between departments

To make changes to users within your departments, head to USERS and select the relevant employee.

In the 'Department' field, select from the drop down then click 'Save changes'.

To move multiple employees to a different department, you can do this in bulk: Multi select / bulk admin of users

Department Privacy

There's an option in Settings > General to adjust whether users can see other departments. Our Privacy modes article covers this in full detail
