4.20 - Departments

Understanding the Basics:

Departments represent the setup and internal organization of your company.  These do not have to be physical locations but can reflect any organizational distinctions.  Use them to virtually reflect your company’s organization.

Departments must be setup to use the timecard and payroll features of adilas.  Departments are the backbone for payroll.  A user is first assigned to a department and then they can be set up with payroll settings.  This provides great flexibility in assigning a user to one or potentially multiple departments to track different settings or pay rates.  Managers and administrators can be assigned and permissioned to oversee departmental management.

Getting Started:  

To set up departments go to the Department Homepage and add a new department.  This is also where you come to edit existing departments.  After a department is created, users can be assigned to the department and user payroll settings can be setup.   

The Department Homepage can be found from the Classic Homepage under the System Maintenance – Department Homepage; My Favorites under the Other Homepages – Department Home; or from the Interactive Map click on Users and then there is a link at the top of the page for the “department homepage”.
