Office Management

The office management page can be accessed by selecting [Utilities-> Office Management] from the left navigation menu. The Office Management page allows for management of the offices that staff work from. Offices can be added, edited, and deleted. Staff office assignments can also be managed.

There are 2 sections/tables that are displayed when viewing leave workflows.

• Office – Add new offices, edit existing office details, office code, the number of staff assigned to the office, and the color selected to represent the office on calendars. 
• Assigned Staff – Displays the staff that are assigned to the selected office and allows for editing of office assignments for staff.

Selecting/clicking an office will display the assigned staff of the office in the table to the right.

2. Edit office: Allows administrators to edit an office’s details, including its name, office code, location, and other additional information.

6. Delete office: Click the delete icon on the far right of the selected group.

Add Office 

To add a new office, click the [+] button located next to the Office header.

Once selected, the user will be prompted to enter the location and office code. The office code serves as an identifier that abbreviates the office name for quick reference, eliminating the need to spell out the full name. Additional details, such as address, city, state, ZIP code, phone, and fax number, are optional.

Once all information is entered, select the save icon to complete the process.

A pop-up window will appear prompting to apply the holiday/admin days to the new office. 

After all information has been confirmed, the new office will be added to the office directory.

Assign a color to the office as a visual identifier. The color codes are used as quick visual identifiers when users view the leave and telework calendars.

2. Staff name: Staffers name
3. Staff title: Staffers title
4. Edit: The edit icon enables administrators to reassign staff to an office by selecting the desired office from the dropdown menu.
