Hierarchy refers to how your organizational structure is represented in PaymentNet. A hierarchy is composed of parent and child entities represented as expandable and collapsible folders on a hierarchy tree. To learn more about how hierarchies are set up in PaymentNet, see Introduction to Hierarchies.
When you create a hierarchy, you can customize settings to pull selected transactions, accounts, and users from predefined nodes within the hierarchy for use in queries and reporting.
You can also use hierarchy controls to personalize PaymentNet for each area of your organization. For more information, see Hierarchy Settings.
