# How to manage companies and departments?

There can be an unlimited number of companies and departments. They should reflect the organizational structure of your company or group of companies. Each employee or workstation can belong to one of the departments, which in turn is part of one of the companies. 

Thanks to this, you can filter and group data in tables by departments and companies, as well as build reports by departments and companies (read more about these options in the [Audit section](/hideez-enterprise-server/audit.md)).

To manage companies, departments and positions go to the **Settings > Organization Structure**.
