The Corporate Hierarchy component enables the user to create and maintain Hierarchical Groupings, including the ability to capture the percent ownership of each child to its parent.
The Corporate Hierarchy link is on the Company Summary and Company Details pages of the Company component. The Corporate Hierarchy link is only visible when a Company participates in Hierarchical Relationship(s). The following Relationship Types are currently considered hierarchical:
Relationship Type ID |
Description |
---|---|
4 |
Company / Site |
17 |
Consumer / Site |
94 |
Manager / Reports to |
333 |
Board of Directors |
20008 |
Person / Son/Daughter |
20010 |
Parent / Child |
20015 |
School / Student |
The Corporate Hierarchy component enables you to view the list of sites or contacts that compose a customer company and assign a participation percentage to each. For example, if a customer company has three contacts, Larry Hill, Stu Marx, and Sandra Thomas,, you might assign participation percents as follows:
Contact |
Percent |
---|---|
Larry Hill |
40 |
Stu Marx |
20 |
Sandra Thomas |
40 |
You can view and assign participation only to the first dependent level in the hierarchy: to the sites and contacts that are directly associated with a company.
A parent may have multiple children, and each child is some percentage of its parent. The sum of all percentages for a given parent shall be less than or equal to 100%. This percentage is called ownership.
Use the Corporate Hierarchy page (RB_HIER_GRP_BUILD) to view and modify the participation percentage of objects in the corporate hierarchy.
