Divisions is a powerful, organizational tool that allows you to link projects and workforce employees to a division. If you have multiple offices or divisions, this is the tool for you.

Create your Divisions

To get started, navigate to Settings & select the Divisions tab. Click “Enable Division.”

Here, you will be prompted to create your first division.

Enter the name of your first division. If you wish to assign all existing projects and employees to this division, you can checkmark the box indicated at the bottom. Finally, click “Enable.”

You’ve now created your first division! You can proceed to add any additional offices or divisions by selecting “New Division.” If you need to edit or delete any existing divisions listed, simply click the pencil icon to edit, or click the trash can icon to delete.


Assign Projects to a Division

Now, we can begin assigning Projects to our divisions.

To assign a project, open the project & navigate to the Division field under "Opportunity Information."

Under Division, select the designated office from the drop-down menu and save your changes. If you do not see the office or division in the drop-down list, simply follow the instructions above to create a new division.

If you wish to assign all of your projects in bulk, you can conveniently download and re-import a CSV with the designated divisions attached.

To do this, navigate to the project view and click “Columns” at the top menu. Select "+ Add Field" and click "Add Column" next to Division. Finally, click "Done." The Division column will now be visible in the Project view.

Now, you can download your project view as a CSV (My View > Download View) and assign each project to its corresponding division.

Note: You'll want to ensure that all divisions listed in your CSV already exist in your Settings.

Once your CSV is updated, simply re-import your Projects (My View > Import CSV), and your divisions will populate in the Project view.


View Insights by Division

Buildr allows you to seamlessly view and filter all Insights according to Division.

To begin, open the Insights tab under Analytics. If you wish to view Insight data by office or division, simply navigate to the tab at the top-right and select your division from the drop-down menu.

This action will generate a new report according to the division you select.


Link Employees to a Division

If you are utilizing the workforce management tool, you can easily assign your employees to a division.

First, navigate to the top menu and select the “Employees” tab under Workforce. To assign an employee to a division, choose the employee profile & click “Edit.” Scroll down to the Division field and select the desired office or division. Click “Save.”


Assign Employees to a Shift using Divisions

Now that you’ve linked your employees to their designated divisions, you can conveniently assign your workforce to relevant shifts.

When assigning your employees to a shift, Buildr conveniently shows you all available employees who match the corresponding division.

If you wish to view employees from multiple offices, simply click “Divisions” and checkmark your desired divisions.
