Setting Up Company Offices or Regions

Creating a region vs Creating an Office

The office and region functionality is designed to help you organize your Legal Tracker users into a management structure that works for you. Typically, an office has Tracker administrator or coordinator. However, if you have small offices in several locations and one user serves as Tracker administrator for all, it could be better to create a region representing many smaller offices.
A law department has the following organization and geographic locations:
New York office (12 attorneys, 1 law department administrator )
Sydney, Australia office (4 attorneys, 1 law department administrator )
Paris, France office (1 attorney)
London, UK office (3 attorneys, 1 law department administrator for Europe/Middle East region )
Tel Aviv, Israel office (2 attorneys)
In this example, you should create only three offices/regions:  New York, Sydney, and Europe/Middle East (in other words, one for each administrator).  Because the other smaller offices (Paris, Tel Aviv_ do not have administrators, they should not be created as separate offices.
note
Tracker coordinators can delegate user management for your company's different offices or regions to a staff member from that office or region without granting them access to Settings.
