The Locations & Departments module adds the ability to assign employees to a department directly in the employee profile and displays department manager assignments in the employee record.
Department Assignment
In the employee profile – under Employees > [Name] > Data – a Department field is available. You can use it to specify which department the employee belongs to. The field is available both when creating a new employee and when editing an existing employee record.
If you create a new employee directly from within a department – via the Employees tab of the respective department – the field is automatically pre-filled with that department.
Department Manager
In the employee profile, the module adds an Assignments > Department Manager tab showing all departments for which this employee is registered as a department manager.
Department manager assignments are managed in the Departments > [Department name] > Department Manager menu item. Administrators can add or remove employees as leaders of a department there.
Note: The Department Manager tab in the employee profile is only visible to users who have permission to view individual employee reports.
