Adding a Department

Add a department when you want to organise employees into a particular area of your business.

Add a new department

Open the Departments page and select Add Department.

Enter a clear Department Name.

Examples include:

  • Sales
  • Technical Support
  • Accounts
  • Customer Services
  • Administration

Add a description

Use the Description field to explain what the department handles.

For example:

Technical Support

Handles technical enquiries from existing customers, including service problems, integrations and configuration.

A clear description can help Cognivox understand the purpose of the department.

Set the sort order

The Sort Order controls the order in which departments are displayed.

Lower numbers appear before higher numbers.

For example:

  • Sales — 10
  • Technical Support — 20
  • Accounts — 30

Save the department

Select Add Department to save it.

The new department will then be available for use within your company and can be assigned to employees.
