Chapter 5 Organization Management : Create an Organization
Create an Organization
To apply separate email policies or services for an individual group of users, create a new organization, configure it with those policies or services, and add the users to it. You can add an org anywhere in your hierarchy. The new org becomes a sub-organization (or sub-org) of the parent you add it to.
1.
Go to the Management page of the org that will be the parent of your new org. (Click the org under Orgs and Users, or click the Add Sub-Org link next to it).
2.
On the parent’s Management page, enter a name for the new org in the New Org field (100 characters or less). Click Add.
The name in the gray bar changes, indicating that you’re now looking at your new org’s settings, which were copied from the parent. You can change them now, to apply for this org’s users, only.
Optionally, you can assign privileges for one or more administrators to manage the new org. Administrators of the parent org have privileges to manage it, too.
Changes made later to the parent org will not be copied to this one, unless you specifically choose for them to (see a particular feature’s topic for details on propagating changes to existing sub-orgs).
Creating a sub-org of the A_Acme Support org, named La Honda.
On the Organizations page, La Honda is displayed as a sub-org of A_Acme Support.
