Understanding Hierarchical Portals

Last updated: April 26, 2023

For larger organizations, creating sub-portals for different business groups can help keep your company's event programming secure, structured, and manageable. In this scenario, there is a main, administrative portal (called the Parent Portal), and sub-portals that can be maintained by Organizers as assigned by the main portal's Administrator. 

Sample Hierarchical Structure

With hierarchical portals, EventBuilder provides a Parent Portal, and based on consultation with the company's decision makers, creates custom sub-portals to suit their needs. 

ABC Company Main

User Permissions

Administrators:

The Parent Portal has a main Administrator who can access all data and User information located in sub-portals. 

The Parent Portal Administrator may assign an Administrator to a sub-portal, which enables access to all data and User information contained on that sub-portal. A sub-portal Administrator would not have access to the Parent Portal's data.

Organizers:

Organizers can be added to the Parent Portal or sub-portals, depending on use case and need. Organizers assigned to the Parent Portal would not have access to data on any sub-portals.
