We are excited to introduce our new Jira Cloud add-on, designed to facilitate the creation and management of advanced organizational charts within your company. Our tool is built to help teams and managers streamline their work, offering a range of features that improve the organization and management of human resources in Jira.

Application functionality

Creating multi-level organizational chart

The add-on enables mapping of the organizational chart, including its levels (e.g. departments, units, teams, etc.). The created  levels may be assigned to users, thus complementing the data with their job position and superior. Each level has an assigned responsible person - level manager. It is possible to create multiple organizations within the scope of a single instance.
