Departments
Departments allow you to manage the different divisions of your organization that deals with a specific area of activity or expertise.
Moreover, departments create exclusivity. Any entries made by the users in a specific department are not visible to other users from other departments.
Example Scenario 1:
- User X from Department A added a new lead.
- User Y from Department B added a new lead.
- User X is unable to view the new lead that was added by User Y and vice versa.
Example Scenario 2:
- User X and User Q are from Department A.
- User Y and User Z are from Department B.
- Both User X and User Q added a new deal.
- User X is able to view the deal created by User Q and vice versa because they belong to the same department. (Provided that limited role is not enabled)
- User Y and User Z are unable to view User X’s and User Q’s deals.
- User X and User Q are unable to view any deals that are added by User Y and User Z.
