How to Configure Your Departments

You can configure as many departments as your organization needs. These can be assigned to Adoption Price Groups, Adoption Hold Price Groups, Non-Adoption Items, Donations, etc., and represent areas of operation for your organization.

Examples include Intake, Adoptions, Clinic, Services, etc. Departments will help your organization track income by the department that brought it in. We recommend asking your accountant for guidance when configuring your departments.

Click your Username > Configuration > Transactions > Departments to get started.
