Create and delete org units

Create an org unit

Creating an org unit requires the Can Create and Edit Org Units permission.

From the Admin Tools menu, click Org Unit Editor.
Click New Org Unit.
Enter your org unit details.
When creating course offering and course section codes, D2L recommends the following naming conventions:
- Course offering - <DEPT_ORG_SEMESTER>
- Course sections - <DEPT_ORG_SEMESTER_SECTIONVALUE>
These recommended naming conventions will foster effective reporting (to aggregate data based on codes) and searching of features.
Click Create.

The Recycle Bin stores org units and their properties until you choose to either restore them or delete them permanently.

Before moving an org unit to the Recycle Bin, you must detach all child org units.

From the Admin Tools menu, click Org Unit Editor.
In the parent org unit that you want to delete, click the Move to Recycle Bin button.

Restoring an org unit requires the Can Create and Edit Org Units permission.
