What is the organisation in Diri?

The Organisation is an available option for administrators to build your desired organisational structure in Diri. The organisation determines the hierarchy in Diri for placing users and objects. It, therefore, forms the backbone of your risk management. For most companies, the organisation should resemble the current structure, but you can build an expedient organisation to suit your needs. Administrators also have the option to traverse the organisational tree and place their user on lower levels such as to inspect the risk picture, user management, etc.


How to build the organisation

The organisation option is available at the bottom of the main menu for administrators. Clicking the organisation will open this window headed by your organisational name, here "Demo":

Options for editing the organisation

There are four options available to you in the organisation:
  1. Moving the mouse pointer over the orange field will highlight it. Click to expand and add new sub-organisations.
  2. Click the "Edit" icon will open the main settings where you rename your top organisation, invite users via the Azure tennant, and access the API.
  3. The four square icon access the overall risk assessment.
  4. The trash can lets you delete organisation objects. Note: Organisations containing users and/or risk assessments can not be deleted. You must remove all content before you can delete it entirely.
Following option 1, clicking and expanding the orange field will give us the "Add new under organisation":

Traversing the organisation

It is possible to traverse your organisation to move down, up, and horizontally in your organisational tree. You can manage this option in the role-based access control, but it is typically reserved for administrators and decision-makers to make "local" adjustments or view the risk picture of an organisational branch. The option is available at the top of the main menu and is illustrated with the looking glass option:

Option for traversing the organisation

Clicking the looking glass will open the whole organisational tree visible to your user and let you move to the desired unit:

Clicking the select option will move your user to a new unit.

Moving back up in the organisational tree works the same way. The whole organisational hierarchy is visible to your user and you can move back up even though your user currently resides lower down in the organisation:

The user resides in "Gautes public organisation" but has the option to move back up to a higher level.
