Adding and Editing Departments

Departments are a great way to organise your products. For example, when creating reports you can filter by departments.

1. Navigate to the “Admin” section and log in.
2. Select the “Items” menu in the top left, and then select the “Departments” tab at the top of the screen.
3. Select the “Add” button at the top of the screen, and input the ID and name of the department you want to add.
   1. For the ID we recommend starting at “001” and increasing it by 1 for each new department, so the first department will have the ID “001”, the second will have “002”, the third “003” and so on.
   2. To rename a department after creating it, select the one you want to edit from the list, and press the “EDIT” button at the top of the window.
4. Press “Save” and the department will be added to the list.
5. Departments can then be assigned to products:
   1. While either creating or editing a product the dropdown box labelled “Department” can be used to give that item a product type.
