Using Departments for Sharing and Invitations #

After creating departments in the Team module, you can use those departments throughout Propel to streamline sharing and invitations.

Recap: Department Setup #

Within the Team module, departments allow you to:

• Name a department
• Assign a department manager
• Add team members to that department

Once departments are created, they become available as selectable groups across the platform.

Using Departments in Meeting Series #

Departments can be used when editing or creating a meeting series.

Instead of inviting individuals one by one, you can:

• Select an entire department
• Automatically include all members of that department in the meeting

This is especially useful when meetings are recurring or department-specific.

Sharing Resources by Department #

Departments can also be used when sharing resources.

Anywhere in Propel where content, tools, or information can be shared, you can:

• Share directly with a department
• Ensure all department members have access without managing individual permissions

Where Department Sharing Applies #

Department-based sharing can be used in:

• Meeting series invitations
• Resource sharing
• Any experience that involves inviting or sharing with multiple people at once

This helps reduce administrative work and ensures consistent access across teams.

Key Takeaway #

Departments are not just for organizing your team—they are designed to:

• Simplify invitations
• Streamline sharing
• Reduce manual selection of individual users
• Support scalable collaboration across the organization

Once departments are set up, they become a powerful shortcut anywhere group sharing is needed.
