Getting Started

In order to understand logo inheritance, the below definitions of each level in the organizational hierarchy will be important:

• Root Organization:
  • The highest level within the organization tree 

Best Practice: there should only be one root organization 
that all parent and child organizations roll-up under

• Parent Organization:
  • The second level within the organization tree
  • Are built under the root organization and must have children
  • One or multiple parent organizations can be created within an organization tree

• Child Organization:
  • The lowest level within the organization tree
  • Are built under the root or parent organization and do not have any children
  • One or multiple parent organizations can be created within an organization tree

Configuration Options

Below you can find the path to configure either a Tenant or Organization logo, along with information on how these images will be handled based on your organization structure.

• Configure tenant logo: all parent and child organizations will inherit the logo
• Configure unique tenant and parent organization logos: all child organizations will inherit the logo from the parent organization directly above it, while all other organizations (e.g. parent and/or children) will inherit the tenant logo 
• Configure unique tenant, parent, and child organization logos: no inheritance; all organizations (parent and child) has a unique logo and the tenant logo is not inherited because each organization has it's own customized logo
