Set Up Offices and Regions

You set up offices and regions for your organization on the Admin/Setup/Offices/Regions page. The information you configure here populates the Office droplist for Division (Business Units), Resources, and Projects. The Office field is required when creating Divisions (Business Units). Note that the additional information, such as address, phone, fax, will also populate fields on the Resource, Division (Business Unit), and project Details screens. If you don't enter the information here, you won't be able to add it on the entity screens.

Every Office must be associated with a Region. If you have a large organization, Regions and Offices are useful for breaking down reports into relevant and manageable pieces.
