Trusteeship lets you use one main account to manage the bills, invoices, and resources of multiple linked accounts.
What is trusteeship?
Trusteeship is a financial delegation relationship between a main account and one or more linked accounts. A linked account delegates financial management—bills, invoices, and funds—to the main account while retaining permissions to manage its own resources. Enterprises can use trusteeship to centralize financial operations across multiple accounts.
The following figure shows the trusteeship relationship between a main account and a linked account.
How trusteeship works
After trusteeship is established between a main account and linked accounts:
The main account pays all subscription and pay-as-you-go bills for the linked accounts. Resource availability in linked accounts depends on the main account's funds.
The main account centrally manages all orders and bills for the linked accounts.
All invoices for the linked accounts are issued to the main account.
The main account can query all income and expenses across the linked accounts.
Linked accounts share the discounts and coupons of the main account.
Any existing balance in a linked account before trusteeship is no longer used and can be withdrawn.
