organisational units

New page

Organisational Units (OU’s) are used to keep distinct groups inside the same institution into separate containers so they can be more easily administered.
This can be illustrated by an example structure in the image below.

(side menu picture) ''Figure 6 - Organisational Unit Side Menu''

You can create OU’s to for manually created users to live in. Most OU’s will be created by the automated synchronisation process.

Clicking on any OU in the side menu will give you a list of the users that are contained inside that OU.

== Creating a new Organisational Unit ==

To create a new OU simply click on the Organisational Unit link on the sidebar. This will give you a new link in the top menu to Add New.

Once in the “add new” screen it will look something like the below.
