## 3. Department synchronization
Currently, when a system with multiple branches is initialized, and all branches have the same departmental roles and permissions, the manager using the system has to repeatedly create departments, roles, and assign permissions for those roles across multiple branches, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Understanding the issues that customers are facing, Nobi Pro has launched an additional feature for department synchronization that allows users to easily sync departments from one branch to another, preventing the need for users to recreate departments, positions, and assign roles at different branches.
To synchronize the departments, the following steps need to be taken:
Step 1: Click "Synchronize department"
Step 2: Select the branch to go to (default is the branch currently being operated on)
Step 3: Select Destination Branch
Step 4: Select the department you want to synchronize.
Step 5: Click "Sync"
## 4. Delete department
To delete a department, please follow these steps:
Step 1: Select a branch
Step 2: Click on the three dots to the right of the department
Step 3: Click "Delete"
Step 4: Click "Yes"
