What is a Division
A Division is normally used to describe a group of smaller units. For example, if you classify Division as a geographical territory, simply create divisions to match those of your organisation e.g. EMEA, America. Alternatively you may classify a Division as a section e.g. Sales and place all cost centres, groups, department and extensions underneath.
Divisions by their nature, normally have a number of sub-sections e.g. EMEA could have UK, France, Germany, Italy etc, while Sales may have Corporate Sales, Trade Sales, UK Sales, International Sales.
The term 'Division' is very flexible and you should really use it to suit the requiremnets of your own organisational structure.
 | NOTE: Divisions, Cost Centres, Group and Sites are very similar and almost interchangeable. Simply use the icons best suited to reflect your actual organisational structure. |

Your Divisions will appear in the Directory as follows:
