How Do I Edit Or Delete Existing Departments?

Editing an Existing Department

Each existing department is listed under the Department Structure header. To edit or view an existing department, click on the department name. View or edit the data as desired, and click on the [FINISH/SAVE] icon to save your changes.

Deleting A Department

The system will not allow you to delete a department level that has punches assigned to it in the Time Card section of the program.  Only departments with no assigned punches can be deleted.  You can, however, deactivate a department level.  This removes the department from the list of available departments throughout the system, while still retaining the department's profile and historical information.

Each existing department is listed under the Department Structure header.  Click on the name of the desired department level.  In the screen that opens to the right, click on either the [DELETE] or [DEACTIVATE] icon.
Note: The [DELETE] icon will only be available if no punches are assigned to the department in the Time Card section of the program.  Deleting a department unassigns all employees.  It is recommended that you reassign your employees to their new department before deleting a department level.

Inactive departments are displayed under the main Department Structure header with a status of (inactive).  Click on the [ACTIVATE] icon to re-activate a department level.
