Org Central is the administrative and governance core of SmartApp, designed for managing an organization's entire project portfolio. It provides administrators with a powerful suite of tools to standardize operations, manage master data, and gain comprehensive oversight across all projects.

This section allows administrators to change their org settings, such as:
Create templates, define governance policies, manage roles, locations, and company associations
Centralize Finance, AppStudio, Reports, and Analytics governance
Onboard and reserve staff for specific projects in your portfolio
ORG Workplace
Tailored for operational activity, this section focuses on execution:
Track time and manage staffing in real time
Create and Manage Apps at the organization level
Handle contracts, bids, and payments in the field
Key Features and Capabilities:
Centralized Project Portfolio View: Offers a consolidated dashboard of all ongoing and past projects within the organization.

Workflow Governance: Allows for the configuration of rules that dictate how and when transactions post to the ERP system, enforcing organizational workflows.
Standardized Finance Code of Accounts: Provides tools for setting up and enforcing finance codes of accounts, aligning estimates, budgets, and cost code segments with organizational standards.
Organizational Workplace: Offers cross-project functionalities for staff, such as resource allocation for future projects or reviewing crew timesheets.
Real-time Analytics and Oversight: Aggregates project data into a master organizational-level data warehouse, providing real-time visualizations, KPI dashboards, and powering AI capabilities for insights across the entire portfolio.
Templatization of Contracts and Catalogs: Supports the creation of standardized contract language files and catalogs for materials and equipment, which can be automatically applied to projects.
