This chapter describes the administration of the organization structure. This includes an overview of the root unit, organization units, positions and user position assignment.
At the top of the organization structure is the root organization unit. Any of the organization units can be parent elements for another organization unit.
Each organization unit, including the root organization unit, can include one or more positions. These positions can be filled by one or more registered users. Positions can be left vacant if no user is available to fill it.
The organization structure is an organization chart based on positions. It depicts the relationships between the different roles in the organization, rather than depicting relationships between specific users. When a user's position is changed, only their position assignment changes. The organization structure remains intact.
