Organization setup & Control Center

Control Center is VipraGo's governance hub. This guide covers the setup wizard, locations, organization codes, and the policy hierarchy that everything else inherits.

The setup wizard

  1. Open Control Center → Setup. The wizard walks through org profile, locations, calendars, policies, employee-ID configuration, and plan settings.
  2. Each step saves independently — you can complete them out of order and return anytime.

Locations & hierarchy

  1. Add each office or site as a location with country, region, and timezone.
  2. Attach a holiday calendar per location — payroll and attendance automatically respect each employee's location calendar.
  3. Policies resolve down the hierarchy: organization → country → location → department → individual. The most specific rule wins.

Organization codes & employee IDs

  1. Define your employee-ID format (prefix, sequence) once; VipraGo assigns IDs automatically on onboarding.
  2. Org codes namespace your tenant for integrations and exports.

Approval workflows

  1. Control Center → Approval Workflows: define who approves what (leave, reimbursements, payroll, asset requests) and in what order.
  2. Use delegation rules so approvals reroute when a manager is on leave.

Tips

FAQ

Can different departments have different policies?
Yes — set a department-level rule and it overrides the location/org default for that department only.
Who can access Control Center?
Admins by default. Specific panels can be delegated via granular permission overrides without granting full admin.
