# Assign Additional Departments to a Contract

### **Assign Additional Departments to a Contract**

**Contracts: Additionally Assigned: Assign Additional Department(s)**

A contract can be tied to more than one department. The **Departments** section of the Notes & Additional Info tab's **Additional Parties, Locations, Departments** panel lists every department currently assigned, each with its name and record ID, and an **Add department** button attaches another. The same action is available from Actions → **Assign Departments** (Assign Resources Actions group).

- Actions → **Assign Departments** (Assign Resources Actions group) offers the same function
