Organisation

Platform Config — Identity, Catalogs, Templates, Settings, Roles & Permissions
🎯 Purpose

The Organisation module is the foundation of the entire platform. It defines your organisation's identity — legal name, address, registration, logo, and tenant-level settings. Every other module in Contract intELIEgence references the Organisation record. Without it, no users, departments, contracts, or configurations can be created.
