Workspaces — how your account is organised

Companies, facilities and departments decide who sees what. Here's how the structure fits together.

Before anyone fills in a form it is worth understanding the shape of your account, because that structure quietly decides what every person sees. Workspaces are how Knowella separates one company, site or department from another — and how a multi-site operation stays legible instead of turning into one enormous shared list.

The structure, top to bottom

The walkthrough moves through the levels in order: a company at the top, facilities beneath it for physical sites, and departments inside those. An app, a record or a report belongs somewhere in that tree, and that is what determines who it reaches.

  • CompanyThe top-level account — usually your organisation.
  • FacilityA site, plant, warehouse or clinic.
  • DepartmentThe team inside a facility that owns the work.

Switching between them

The tour shows the switcher in use. Somebody who covers three sites moves between them without logging out or holding three accounts, and the dashboards, tasks and records all follow the switch — so the numbers on screen always belong to the place you are currently looking at.

Why it matters

Scope is the difference between a platform that stays useful at ten sites and one that collapses into noise. Get the structure right early and every later feature inherits it: permissions, dashboards and reports all filter along the same lines, so nobody has to remember to exclude the other sites by hand.
