Organization Template

An Organization in the BioT system is an entity you are either selling your devices to, or who works with your devices. The Organization template allows you to define what organization type you have and configure how your organization type is presented in the system.

Every new organization you work with is associated with the same template.

The way an organization is represented is very important for the abilities you provide for each organization. BioT comes pre-installed with the first organization – your organization, and you can create as many organizations as you want, to represent your clients, distributors, etc. However, all the organizations use the same basic Organization Template.

As with other templates, the organization template comes with built-in attributes (pre-configured attributes) as well as providing you the ability to add any number of attributes you want or disregard built-in ones.
For additional information on the different attribute types, see Attribute Types.
