Templates For Departments?

Hello

I need to modify the HTML and Tex templates, for a particular department
only.

I thought this was possible, but I can find no information on it in the
manual.

Has anyone done this, or is there a prescribed way short of setting up a
separate user for the department in question?  I really only need to
overload the AR templates.

Thanks

Luke

Uh, you modify the HTML and Tex templates for ALL the users of that  
department.

What do you mean "a separate user for the department in question"?

Obviously each person using the system has a separate user name and  
password. You wouldn't have a single user for a whole department, as  
this would be poor security.

You might, if you're running a small company, and using
departments to segregate significantly different business operations
within that company.

For the moment, the same person handles all invoicing, whether it is for
the main company, or the department that is being used to separate a
particular line of business from the rest.  That may not always be, of
course.

I could have used a project for this, which in fact is what I have always
done in the past, but this is the first time I have needed to introduce
the capability of separate templates, budgets, and so on, and it just
seemed to make sense to use a department.

I have never used departments at any point in the past several years of
LedgerSMB and SL, and as such was momentarily being narrow minded and not
thinking this through, thinking there might be a department level solution
here, when of course templates are only available via users.:)

That's what I get  for working that late.
