Link a partner tenant to yours: the invitation, and what a connection is for

You can say when two businesses need a tenant-to-tenant link rather than a second company…

What a tenant link is for

Step 1 — Decide whether a link is what you need

You will know whether your situation calls for a tenant link at all.

What this step names
  1. The link lets the two agree which companies
  2. Branches and items correspond: the partner's companies and branches are readable across…
  3. Of your items the dealer sees only what you permit

Step 2 — Know what the link does, and what it will not do

You can say plainly what a connection buys you.

What this step names
  1. It lets one tenant
  2. The host
  3. Open a controlled slice to the other
  4. The guest: a company and branch pairing
  5. A list of items the guest may pair with its own
  6. A team of the partner's users

Connecting the two sides

Step 3 — Send the invitation from the host

The invitation exists on both sides.

Step 4 — Answer it from the guest, and read the four states

You can answer an invitation and read what a connection's status means.

What you do
  1. Reject makes both rejected

Step 5 — Treat a connection as permanent

You will not send a second invitation to a tenant that already has one.

Step 6 — Give the right people the rights, on both sides

You will know who can do what.

What this step names
  1. Every tenant-link action is open to the tenant's owner or administrator
  2. Otherwise needs one of its permission codes: separate families for invitations
  3. Company and branch mapping
  4. Item permission and pairing on each side
  5. External teams
  6. Roles
