Organize users to departments

Click on the underlined links to find out more.

 

In case you have a large group of users in your Service Account, you may find it useful to organize them to separate departments. For example, if you have one common Service Account for the whole organization, arranging users to departments allows you to build the structure that corresponds to the existing hierarchic structure within the organization.

Furthermore, such arrangement provides the means for dividing your Service Account management between several department administrators.

 

When you have already created departments in your Service Account, and you navigate to a certain department on the tree view pane, Departments and User list view pane displays the information about the user groups and sub-departments of the selected department, and User details list view pane presents the information about the users belonging to that department.
