## Department Desktop

The Department Desktop allows administrators to configure department-specific settings for users assigned to those departments. You access the Department Desktop by clicking on the dept tab at the top of the screen. The Department Desktop is available to all administrators with either PAT Access Level of Level 1 or Level 2 . Note that Level 2 administrators are departmental administrators, and have restricted access to some of the Department Desktop settings, unlike Level 1 administrators who have complete access. For example, Level 2 administrators cannot add department administrators or add users to a department.

The Department Desktop consists of a toolbar, a Quick Details area for editing access, and a workspace.

To perform operations on existing department, you must first select it by clicking on its name in the Choose Department form. Then, click the Edit button in the Quick Details box to access its settings.
