Sub-Organizations layer and end-user grouping
Answered
Posted Jan 26, 2021
Hi
I would like to divide my end-users to sub-organizations.
My customers are from the construction industry and every customer has more than one construction site.
A construction site is considered an entity for my business model.
Is there a way to have a sub-entity under Organizations?
If not, is it possible to achieve that with your development tools?
Thanks!

Kfir Luzon,
Will these end-users have different email domains? (i.e. acme1.org, acme2.org) or will they share domains?
If they have unique domains, you can create separate organizations for each 'sub-org' and add an org dropdown field to show they're connected
If they share the same domains, or there is no 'always true' logic, then i recommend creating sub organization fields - this way you can show that Acme.org has multiple sub divisions, and then organize the end users by their sub divisions.
And w/ either logic, you can bulk-upload your customers using tags which will auto-apply them to the org and it's subdivision

Hi McCabe
Thanks for the quick reply.
It actually sounds interesting though I have one issue with that, I will not be able to have specific fields for Sub-Organizations as they are not organizations but only a field in the organization.
As for future statistics, I would like to be able in the future to know how many tickets were opened for each construction site. how can I manage that with a field?
BTW, did you mean a ticket field or Organizational field? I guess it was organizational?
Thanks so much!

Kfir,
If your end-users will always be a part of one "sub organization"; I think it'd be easiest to just create separate organizations and associate your end-users with their specific organization
i.e. "Acme - 1", "Acme - 2". That way there will be no confusion later down the line; and will make reporting easier
You can, if needed allow customers to be a part of multiple organizations HERE, but it would seem like then you'd have an end user in both "Acme" and "Acme -1" organization. Although, I'm not sure this would be necessary or be more work and potential confusion.
let me know your thoughts.
