The Places module provides comprehensive tools for managing your organization’s structure, including departments, teams, and other organizational units. Key features include hierarchical visualization, document management, and permission-based access control.

Permissions

Access to organizational units and their resources is controlled through a dual permission system:

1. Role-based permissions: Determine what actions a user can perform
2. Unit membership: Determines which units a user can access
