Managing departments

With Leave Dates, it is possible to organise your staff into departments.


Go to the Settings > Departments page to:

  • Create new departments
  • Edit existing departments
  • Delete departments

Create new departments

To create a new department, click on the Add Department button.


  1. Give the department a name.
  2. Choose who should approve requests made by employees in this department.
  3. Select anyone who should be notified of requests in this department.
  4. Control the visibility of people in the department.
  5. Click Save

When you create a new department, initially no employees will be assigned to it. You can assign employees in the Settings > Employees page. 

Edit existing departments

Go to the Settings > Departments page and click on the department name to edit it. 

Renaming a department will not impact the employees who are part of that department.

Deleting Departments

Any employees linked to a deleted department will become unassigned.
