The tree
Every system in this category imposes a fixed model on you: organisation, location, and if you are lucky a department. If your business works differently you bend your reality around the system, and widen the gap between the system that is meant to support your work and the way your company actually runs.
Brikx has no fixed model. The tree is recursive and you name every zone yourself. Three things follow that tree automatically:
- Settings are inherited downwards. Time zone, day start, retention period and scoring rules are set once high in the tree; everything below follows, unless you override it on the spot.
- Access follows the same tree. Whoever has access to a zone sees that zone and everything under it, never more. There is no separate permissions matrix to maintain.
- Reporting adds up the other way. A regional manager sees their region; head office sees everything; nobody has to configure anything to make that true.
