Departments & Sites
Departments model your organization and drive scoping across the app. They can nest to represent regions, sites, or stores.
How it works
- Departments can have a parent, forming a tree (e.g. Commercial → Downtown Site). Permissions and oversight cascade to descendants.
- Each department can have a head (manager-level rights within it) and a banner/photo for a polished landing page.
- A department detail page shows its sub-sites, members, and scoped content (SOPs, runs).
How to configure
- Create a department; optionally choose a parent to nest it (cycles are prevented automatically).
- Assign a head in Admin → Members (or grant oversight to a VP/Director).
- Upload a banner for the department page.
Why it matters
Scoping by department means a temp at one site sees that site's SOPs and workflows — not another region's. Heads and overseers get the right visibility without becoming full admins.
