Location Departments

The Location Department screen lists the departments in use at each location. The primary function of the location department is to control the products to which each application user has access. Users can be linked to one or more location departments, and can only order products that are linked to those location departments.

Note: If a "Default Company Department" is defined in the General Preferences, there must be at least one location department linked to this company department. See Department Setup Simplified for more details.

Under the Corporate menu, click Location Departments.
Select a Location from the drop-down list. The screen will refresh to include location departments assigned to that location. {Concepts Note}: If a location is linked to one or more Concepts, it will only be available if the current application user is linked to one or more of the same Concepts. If a location is not linked to any Concepts, it will be available to all users. See "Concepts" for more information.
