Businesses
A business is a type of account holder that cannot directly hold cards, but can have parent/child relationships with card-holding users. A business can monitor and control card use by a specified group of users. Every business has a general purpose account (GPA).
For information on how to create a user that has a child-to-parent hierarchical relationship to the business, see Create User.
Note
A user can simultaneously be a child of a business and a parent of other users if the user is not configured to use the parent’s account balances and the user’s children are configured to use the parent’s account balances. For more information on account holders, see About Account Holders.
