The creation of an Operations Manual starts with the roles and responsibilities within your business or organization. This even includes the roles where people wear more than one hat!

In Way We Do, you can achieve this within the Structure section. Completing your organizational chart is an important activity as it impacts how other features in Way We Do will work, so we recommend this is one of the first things you do when setting up your account.
