In Abtrac both Employees, and Projects can be assigned to a specific Team or Department for reporting purposes. The main difference is…
- A Team is can be assigned to an Office, and as such can be filtered in reports by office.
- A Department is a stand-alone group that both employees and projects from multiple offices can belong to.
Both groups can be created and maintained from the Administration screens.
A Team in Abtrac is a group that has more reporting options, included planned time and scheduling.
Administrators can update both Teams and Departments from the Administration >> Maintenance screen.
