Hierarchy on the left, corresponding content on the right - much like Windows Explorer. The hierarchy is actually composed of two sub-hierarchies - people and job requests. Each person has a supervisor and may have subordinate(s) and customer(s) attached. "Customers" (who are mostly the sales persons) have projects which have parts/sub-projects which act as containers for the job requests.

Searches are performed either by the project name or by the ID of contract / proposal / factory request / engineering request.

The module provides aggregated information in condensed view about:

• active requests currently being worked on
• completed requests

Information is presented for the currently selected person in the hierarchy and all of his/her subordinates. In contrast to the design department each service here is in fact a separate request.

It helps the department chief to take a grasp of the current load on every team member.

The department chief regularly logs the amount of work/time spent on each request per designer. This information is later used by the ERP to produce reports about the salary of each designer and the department's income from selling services to the sales department.
