Branch in Frappe HR: Recording Your Office Locations
A Branch is an office or outlet of your company at a location other than the main office. Frappe HR lets you create and keep a record of all the different branches of your organisation, so employees can be assigned to the site they actually work from.
You will find it under Home > Human Resources > Employee > Branch.
BEFORE YOU START
It is mandatory to create your Company before creating a Branch, since each branch belongs to a company.
How to create a Branch
- Go to the Branch list and click New.
- Enter the name of the Branch.
- Save.
A Branch is a simple master record. Once created, it can be linked to the Employee master so each person is associated with the right location.
TIP
Name branches clearly and consistently, for example, by city or office (Mumbai, Pune, Head Office) so they are easy to recognise in dropdowns and useful for location-based filtering and reports later.

SUMMARY
A Branch represents one of your company’s locations away from the main office. Create your Company first, then add a branch for each site (just a name is needed) and link it to employees on the Employee master. Consistent branch names make location-based filtering and reporting much easier.
