Tech Tip: How to Set Up Group Accounts

Most large organizations have more than just one department, store, or branch requiring scheduling tools. Often they have one centralized department or headquarters to oversee all the subdivisions. The Group Accounts module in Humanity is built to help the central department or headquarters to manage its subdivisions, a.k.a. Child Accounts.
