Department Code: Enter the code used for this department for accounting purposes
External ID: Enter any code used to identify the department in another system, such as payroll.
Active option: Make sure the Active option is checked to make the department active.

Click Save to save the new department.

To edit a department, click the Edit link for the department in the right column of the list of departments. The Department Name, Description, Code, and External ID appear so that you can change them. Click Save to save your changes.

To make a department inactive, click the Edit link to edit it, and then click the Active option so that it is unchecked.
