Quick start

Why do you need departments software?

For small firms - user management alone is enough. At 20+ employees - without structural departments you lose clarity on responsibilities and document flow.

No structure

All employees in one plain list. Who reports to whom? Without hierarchy - zero clarity.

Setup from scratch

Creating typical structure for construction firm - office, sites, accounting - takes time. Default templates save hours.

No detail levels

"Construction" department with 30 people. Without sub-departments - mass management.

No duplicate

Second company branch - will you copy whole structure manually?

Key features of departments software

Construction Team organizes your team hierarchically and quickly.

Departments with hierarchy

Each department can sit under a parent, for nested sub-departments. Multi-level hierarchy - company → branch → department → team.

Auto numbering

Each department with unique code for document identification.

Duplicate department

Quick copy of department with all sub-departments and settings. Convenient for expansion.

Import default departments

Create a typical structure for a construction firm in seconds. Saves setting it up from scratch.

User integration

Each user assigned to department. Listings per department, reports per department.

Restricted management

Only admin-level users can change the structure. Positive control.

Who is departments software for?

Firms with 20+ employees:

Frequently asked questions about departments

What does importing default departments do?+

Creates a typical structure for a construction firm - Management, Office, Construction, Accounting, Procurement and so on. Saves hours of setup.

How many nesting levels supported?+

No limit - a department can sit under a parent at any level. Standard is 3-4 levels. E.g. Company → Varna Branch → Construction Dept → Team 1.

What does duplicate department do?+

Copies whole department with all sub-departments, preserves settings. Users not copied - need manual assignment.

Can a user be in multiple departments?+

Currently one department per user. If user has multiple responsibilities - use permissions instead of departments.

What permission is required for management?+

A dedicated user-management permission is required to create, edit or delete departments. Admin-level roles only, by default.

Reports per department?+

Other modules support department filtering via user assignments - e.g., "all offers from users in department X".

Can I delete a department with users?+

Not directly. First reassign users to another department, then delete. Validation prevents orphans.
