Create Departments

You create new departments in the Departments module. It helps streamline the management of various departments within an organization. Create, update, and manage departments efficiently, ensuring that all relevant information is captured and easily accessible.

The Departments module ensures a well-organized structure, making it easier to manage.

Create includes tabs with sections of information. Collapse or expand sections to show more content. Hiding detailed information helps keep the page uncluttered, making it easier to view other sections as needed. To expand or collapse a section, click the section heading.

Create new departments by entering details on one or multiple tabs. After inputting the information, click Create. The system creates the department and opens the Update page.

Your organization's administrator sets up a default form within the Classic TMS modules. The display of tabs, field groupings, and fields varies depending on whether it's in Create, Update, or Query mode.

The tabs and fields you see within this content may differ from those configured by your organization's administrator. Use this information as a guideline.

Create mode displays the department form assigned to you based on the current data segment within the Classic TMS database in which you are operating, along with the group to which you are assigned.
