Create sub-organizations

[martinvanzijl]

Allow making a sub-organization box that you can click on to view that part of the organization. (Similar to making a hyperlink to another diagram for a box in Visio.)

@cvz04 Could you please provide feedback on the following:

• When exporting to a CSV file, how should the sub-org’s be represented?
• Should relationships be allowed to/from sub-orgs just as with persons?

@cvz04 Could you please provide feedback on the following:

• When exporting to a CSV file, how should the sub-org’s be represented?

When exporting persons, you only need to show the Department (sub-org) the person belongs to. Ideally, the Department property of a person should be identical to its sub-org.

One option is to create the sub-org structure (Department structure) first. After that, a person can only be assigned to an existing sub-org / department.

• Should relationships be allowed to/from sub-orgs just as with persons?

Yes, sub-orgs can belong to a parent and also have child sub-orgs of its own. A direct relationship between a sub-org and a person is not allowed.

A sub-org must always have one (and only one) org diagram associated with it.

For exporting to CSV, I plan the following

sub-org-csv-example.csv

• [ ] Remove "Filter by Dept" feature
