Creating a New Department Landing Page

To create a new department landing page, follow these steps:

1. Click on Department Wizard at the top right of the home page. The following wizard dialog box appears.
   Show me.

   The following example creates the Quality Assurance department and adds it to the eIntranet site.

   

2. Enter the name of the new department in the dialog box.
3. Click Add. The new department (Quality Assurance in this example) is added to the Departments navigation menu.
   Show me.

   

When you create the department, its landing page appears (Quality Assurance example shown in the following figure). The new department page is pre-loaded with Collateral, Activity Stream, Calendar, Groups Spaces, News, and a new Blog, or choose your own content by editing the page. To modify this page, see Modifying an Existing Department Page.

Note: The members community block is a discussion group about things of interest to the department. Anyone can join the discussion group. If you want only department staff members to shows in the members list, see Creating a Restricted Group.
