Manage Organizational Hierarchy

Are you engaging with complex organizations such as large businesses, government bodies or even large NGO associations? The new options for organizational hierarchy are for you.

Benefits

This can be quite handy for managing engagements with :

• Government bodies. Simply create a new organization for any ministry, sub-department or committee.
• Large multinationals. Create a new organization for each affiliate you interact with and link them to the parent organization.
• Any other complex organization. Create a new organization for each business unit.

Simply link your organizations together by saying which one is the parent organization and you will be able to understand everything happening with an organization.

This feature introduces :

• New sections in the Relations tab of an organisation record. It is now possible to view the complete hierarchy of organisations and the members of all related organisations. 
• A new report that shows all the latest communications with all related organizations, like a government department and all its sub-departments, or a multinational and all its affiliates.

Please refer to our Help Centre article to get started with this feature.

 

Report filters - New options

Back in March we introduced a new way to customize your Analytics reports, report filters, making them  easier to consult and manipulate. Here are the filtering option we added :

New filtering options

• Locations - Filter by Zone
• Environmental Monitoring - Filter by Monitoring program or by Parameter
• Land Access - Filter by Land request
• Land Management - Filter by Parcel or by Company asset
• Compliance Management - Filter by Compliance document

You can see some examples of what you can do with these filters by going in Analytics and searching for “EM - Alerts dashboard” “CM - Overall : Dashboard”, as these are reports we created for you.
