Create a Department

To create a department at the Enterprise level:

1. Navigate to SkyTab Settings > Menu > Departments.
   
2. Select + Add Department. 
   
3. On the Add Department screen, enter the department name (required). You can also optionally:
   • Select a color
   • Set coursing
   • Enable Fast Quantity Buttons
     
4. Select Save.
5. Changes will need to be published to take effect on the POS.

By default, the department is inherited by all locations below this level. For more information, visit the Manage Data Inheritance and Overrides article.

You can create overrides to accommodate variations at individual locations. To enable this and set the required permissions, visit the Configure Location-Level Menu Data and User Permissions article for details.

Department Sorting

Users can sort departments in any order they prefer. Changes are applied immediately in SkyTab Multi-Location Management and will appear in SkyTab POS after publishing.

To sort:

1. From the Department screen, select the three horizontal dots in the upper right corner.
   
2. Select Department Sort Order.
   
3. Drag departments up or down to reorder them.
   
4. Select Save.
5. Changes will need to be published to take effect on the POS.
