eymanage: Updating your company/branch settings
On eymanage, you can set up multiple nursery branches under one company. Because of this, company-level settings and branch-level settings are edited separately.
Company/Nursery Chain settings are company-wide, so changes made there affect every nursery branch on the system. Branch/Nursery settings are specific to each nursery, and go into far more depth on specific features.
Some of the fields will be pre-populated with information you provided to the eyworks team. There are a lot of options, some with very niche functions, so we’ll just go through the ones relevant to what we cover in this guide.
