Organize your company into departments and business units - with department heads and employee mapping, all in one place.
Company Structure lets administrators set up how the organization is divided. Create departments, assign a head to each, and keep business unit and workplace information up to date. Once set up, this structure is used across PrimeHR wherever departments matter, such as leave approvals for department heads.
Company Structure has two sections:
Departments - functional teams within your company, such as Engineering, Human Resources, Finance, Sales, or Marketing
Business Units - your business units and workplace information
How to Access Company Structure
Log in to the Admin Panel.
Go to Settings → Company Structure.
Select Departments or Business Units.

How to Create a Department
Go to Settings → Company Structure → Departments.
Click New.
Enter the department name and a short description.
Assign a department head.
Set the status to Active or Inactive.
Click Save.
Department List
All your departments appear in the panel on the left, showing:
Department Name - the name of the department
Description - a short summary of what the department does
Status - whether the department is active or inactive
Head Assigned - whether a department head has been assigned
Available Actions
New - create a new department
Show Inactive - include deactivated departments in the list
Select a department - view its details, its department head, and the employees mapped to it
Setting a department to Inactive hides it from the active list without deleting it, so you can bring it back later if needed.
