Understanding the different levels of organizations in FactoryPulse
Only account admins can manage the org levels for the account.
In FactoryPulse Org Levels are used to create a hierachy for your data. This allows you to create different views of your data based on the org level.
We know that different stakeholders will often want different views of the data, we’ve created a flexible system that allows you to create the right view for your needs.
As a default FactoryPulse has 3 different levels of organizations: the Factory, the Department, and the Cell. If this fits your needs you can use the default levels or you can create your own.
Factory: The top level of organization where data is aggregated, normally this is a single physical factory. Data would not normally be inputted at the factory level, but it would be used for reporting and analytics.
Department: The second level of organization, this would be a logical grouping of cells. For example, in a manufacturing facility you may have different departments for production, engineering, and quality.
Cell: The third level of organization, this would be the most granular level of organization. For example, in a manufacturing facility you may have different cells within production, or multiple teams within engineering.
You can only have 1 item at each level, this is to ensure data can flow through the heirachy’s correctly. For example, if you have 2 factories, you would need to create a new org level for one of the factories. You can have different visual board templates for multiple orgs within the same org level.
To add an org level, click on the “Add Org Level” button. This will open a form where you can enter the name of the org level and the level of the org. There is no limit
