# Setting up the Manage Account Hierarchies Capability

When adding the Manage Account Hierarchies capability to a role or account, you use this screen to determine the extent of the capability.

## Specify Hierarchy Path

In this field, specify the Corporate Hierarchy (or subset) to grant access to. Several things to note:

- If you're adding the capability to a subscriber account, you can only grant access to the Corporate Hierarchy that the subscriber account belongs to.

- To give a CSR account (or CSR-assignable role) access to all hierarchies, fill in the field with "Corporate Accounts (1)."

You can grant access to:

- the Current Node: users of the capability can only view or edit the account you enter in the field; they will not have access to any child folders or accounts.

- Direct Descendants: users of the capability can only view or edit folders and accounts directly below this one.

- All Descendants: users of the capability can view or edit the entire sub-tree for the current node. This is the easy way to grant access to an entire corporate hierarchy.

## Specify Access Level

You can specify access at the Read or Write level. Read access means accounts with the capability can view the hierarchy; Write access means users can edit and update the hierarchy.

## Add Button

To add another path or another type of access, use the Add button to bring up another set of Hierarchy Path/Access Level fields. This is useful if you need to grant access to separate sub-areas of a corporate hierarchy. For example, you could give a CSR Read access to the Engineering folder (and below), and Write access to an individual account in the Finance folder.
