Directories and settings

The Positions attribute, as well as the Cities and Departments are used for assigning tasks, setting up access to the Knowledge base and the Catalog, and in all system filters.

You can go to the Positions page:

The Positions page contains a list of all positions ever added to the system.

Positions are being added to the list:

while importing users along with user data
may be created manually

To create a new position in the list, you need to click the create button - + in the upper right corner and enter the name on the page of creating.
There is also an extra option for positions editing - setting the Managing Role or Deputy role. Such users are marked with a star and are located above others in the contact list (for more details, see Contacts).

Deputies will have the same functional rights as the Managers. Only the Deputy has a different mark and is in the contacts below the users with the mark "Manager".

This option is important for working with the Organizational Structure, because it sets the Manager-Subordinate communication. - more details at Organizational structure
Also, the Director checkbox is important for the Administrator role and the ability to view reports about your staff. - more details at Roles in the system.

Warning! While creating a new department record, the register and spaces are taken into account. I.e. Director and director - will be recognized as different names.

While editing attributes in directories, for users who were previously assigned the edited attributes, the changes will not be saved. The changes are saved in the filters and for assigning to new users. Other users need to edit the profile, replacing the old attributes with the edited new ones.
