Add a Division

Divisions are subsections of a department and generally have a specific task, function, or responsibility. For example, in a department responsible for all utilities in a city, there may be separate divisions for water, sewer and storm water, natural gas, electricity, and fiber optic infrastructure.

PREREQUISITES: The Division security function and its associated sub-functions must be selected for the security role you belong to. See Security Roles for more information. You must have a country code, state, and zip code set up. See Country Setup for more information.

1. From the home page, click PLL and click Organization Structure.

3. On the Divisions panel, click Add record.

4. On the New Division panel, enter a 10-character (maximum) name in the Division Code field.
5. Enter a brief explanation of the division (no more than 40 characters) in the Division Name field.

IMPORTANT: While the Division Code and Division Name fields are the only fields required to create a new division, it is important to provide as much of the additional information as possible. These additional fields identify the contact information for the division.
