    Sub-Orgs tab

    Description

    Allow Sub-Org Dependencies

    Whether the sub-org attributes have dependencies. When checked, you can define each sub-org’s values dependent on the previous sub-org’s value. This results in nested levels of classification.

    Be aware, enabling this will mean a great deal of manual entry to set this up, depending on how many of the sub-org categories you are using. For example, if you were to configure Sub Org 0 to the state, Sub Org 1 to the county, and Sub Org 2 to the city, you would need to manually enter each city within each county within each state.

    In essence, you will have to build the entire tree structure. When sub-orgs are not dependent, users are then categorized into mutually independent groups that allow independent levels of classification instead of nested levels of classification.

    Sub-Org 0

    The definition of sub-org 0.

    Sub-Org 1
