App overview
The following pages are available in the app:
People: Allows you to manage all contacts within your system. Skills and experience levels can be defined.

Organizations: Allows you to manage all organizations within your system. You can add or remove organization members. Categories can be used to group organizations.
About: Provides information on the version of the MediaOps package.
People
You can add people to store administrative data on individuals that are relevant to your operations, such as operators, management, contractors, and customers. This data includes contact details, skills, and experience information. People added in this app can be used in other DataMiner applications:
- As contact persons that can be linked to a job in the Scheduling app.
- As bookable resources in the Resource Studio, Scheduling, and Workflow Designer apps.
The People & Organizations app allows you to define a list of skills, which can be assigned to people. These skills appear as capabilities on the associated resources, making it easy to find the right person for a job.
Organizations
An organization represents a company in your supply chain, such as customers, suppliers, or partners. Each person added to the People & Organizations app can be part of one organization at most. The organizations created here can be used in the Scheduling app for the Organization field of a job, which can for example be used to specify for which external or internal customer a job is being carried out.
Teams
Teams are used to group together a smaller number of people. When a team has been created, users can add people to it and assign them a role in the team, such as "member", "supervisor", etc. People can be part of multiple teams at the same time. Teams can be converted into pools of bookable people resources that will show up in the Resource Studio, Scheduling, and Workflow Designer apps. People from different organizations can be part of the same team.
