Allow segregation of administrators to discrete lists of trading partners

Our organization has multiple business units. We need the ability to assign administrators so that they can make changes to only those accounts assigned to their business unit.


Example - Trading partners A, B, and C are assigned to business unit ABC

Trading partners D, E, and F are assigned to business unit DEF


We need the ability to assign admistrator accounts in SFG/B2BI so that only administrators with responsibility for business unit ABC can see and change accounts A, B, and C.


Conversely, only those administrators assigned to DEF can see and modify accounts D, E, and F.

How will this idea be used?

This will allow us to segregate access and responsibility for these accounts, allowing only those with a need to know to see, change, and add to accounts in that business unit
