What are divisions?

Divisions in a GoContractor account are created based on regional locations, groups, or companies, with projects nested underneath.

Align divisions with your company structure to organize projects effectively and facilitate easy access to information for inviting workers to the correct projects.

Some key things to keep in mind when creating divisions and projects:

  • Create divisions based on regional locations, groups, or companies. For example: if you have multiple projects based in Vermont, you could name a division "Vermont" and nest all your Vermont-based projects below it. 

Never nest projects below the root level. Always nest projects below a division. 

  • Stay consistent with your structure. If you lose track of how you organize your projects, it can be difficult to find things and expand as you add more projects.
