Use this gadget to automatically create Data-Admin- instances in an organization top-level class that you specify. To speed the creation of an organization structure, use the gadget promptly after a new installation, or to support new applications not created by the Application Accelerator.
Carefully plan and build your organizational structure. This information is shared across all applications on a system and is the basis for security features that control user access.
To create a new organizational structure:
A four-character or less organization name is recommended. A typical organization name is your organization's stock ticker (for example GLBX
). Because the names of class instances in the applications are based in part on the organization name, as applications are developed for the organization, keeping the name to four-characters or less makes future growth easier.

This gadget enables you to view the organizational structures and operators in the system. You can create or modify existing structures and add operators.
Process Commander supports a three-level organization hierarchy. The top level is known as the organization; the middle level as divisions, and the lowest level as organization units. Each user (Operator ID instance) is associated with an organization, division, and unit.
This gadget displays a tree chart representing the organizations in your system. You can use the chart to:
This chart is also available on the Chart tab in organization, division, and organization unit rule forms.
Viewing the chart
Click a plus sign to expand any node. Organizations are presented at the top level, divisions at the first indented level, and organization units at the second indented level. In this example, the Administration division belongs to the AlphaCorp.com organization. The division has four organization units (Development, Finance, HR, and Technical). Technical has two child organization units (QA and Research) reporting to it. (These child units are for charting purposes only. Their relationships are not referenced during rule processing or used in reports.)
The Description column contains the short description text in the node's rule form. The Cost Center and Manager columns use the values entered in the Cost Center and Cost Center Manager sections on the Accounting tab on division and organization unit rule forms.
Double-click any node to open its rule form.
Working with the chartYou can perform operations on a node by selecting it on the chart and right-clicking. This opens a pop-up menu, which displays these options:
