WORK DIVISIONS#
A work division is a subdivision of an operational entity and is the highest level for Time Scheduling.
A work division equates to a physical location, such as a plant, factory, mill, campus, store, theatre, or casino and is overseen by a manager, director or chief of operations.
A work division is generally subdivided into a number of work areas where work is performed.
