## General Settings

The General Settings screen lets administrators assign administrators and users to a department, and modify the name of the department. The General Settings screen is only available to administrators with a PAT Access Level of Level 1 . When an administrator edits an existing department, or selects General from the Edit Settings menu, the Edit Department screen appears.

The Edit Department screen allows you to configure the following parameters:

- Name : This setting contains the name of the department, which will be used to prevent duplicate departments within the system.
- Label : This setting is an abbreviated name for the department and is limited to 25 characters in length. This is the name that users will see in any tables or when using the web interface.
- Administrators : This setting specifies which users have administrator privileges for the selected department. To modify the list of administrators, click on the Edit link and the Department Administrators form appears.

This form contains a list of all users with a PAT Access Level of Level 2 or Level 1 .

- To add a user as an administrator, check the Select box next to their name.
- To remove a user as an administrator, uncheck the Select box next to their name.
- To save your changes, click Save in the Quick Details box.
- To ignore your changes, click the Cancel button in the Quick Details box.

- Users : This setting specifies the list of all current handheld users for the selected department. Only current users can submit charges using the billing router for that department or use the stock filter, rounding lists, charge macros, profiles, snapshots, and other useful utilities available for that department. To modify the list of current users, click on the Edit link and the Department Users form appears.

- To add a user to the list, use the Search button in the Quick Details box to locate the user and then check the Select box next to their name.
