Departments

Setting up the Departments module

Overview

The Departments module enables you to organize the intranet around your company departments. It helps you create department pages, share department updates, news, and announcements that are relevant to a department.

Network admins can change the system default label and other domain-wide settings of the Department module.‌

Admin Portal > Modules > Departments

1. Department Label: Enter a custom label for the Departments module.

2. Only network admins & company admins can create company department categories: Mark the checkbox to allow only network admins and intranet admins to create department categories from the User Portal. When un-marked, any network user can create department categories.

3. Category is required for each company department: Mark this checkbox to make category a required field for every company department. The system checks the required condition on company department Create action or an Edit action.

4. Tag is required for each company department: Mark this checkbox to make hashtag a required field for every company department. The system checks the required condition on company department Create action or an Edit action to have at least 1 hashtag.

5. Allow admins to delete company department: Mark this checkbox to allow network admins, intranet admins, and department admins to delete the departments from the User Portal.

6. Save: Click the Save button to apply the settings to the module.

The translate option of your domain in the Admin Portal (Admin Portal > Domain > Translate) MUST be deactivated to edit the module label.

Activating and Deactivating the translate option of your domain in the Admin Portal (Admin Portal > Domain > Translate) resets the custom label text.
