This section describes how to delete departments.

• You cannot undo the deletion of the department.
  Deleting a parent department will delete its child departments.

• If you delete a department, it will also be deleted from the "Membership" of the member user. The user will not be deleted.

• The users who lost membership by the deletion of the department will be categorized as "Unassigned Users".

• Permissions associated with departments
  If you delete a department, the access permission granted using that department is also deleted.
  Depending on how access permissions were configured, some view-restricted data could be publicly accessible.

  • Example of Kintone
    Even if only the HR Department members are allowed to view the employee directory app, deleting "HR Department" from Kintone Users & System Administration could make the app visible to everyone in the company.
