2. Menu → Directory → Organizational units.
3. Hover over the parent organization you want to modify and click "Create new organizational unit".
4. In "Name of organizational unit", enter the new unit's name (the "/" character is not allowed).
5. Optionally enter a Description, and optionally change "Parent organizational unit" via its "Edit" control.
6. Click "Create".

## End state
