We are a conglomeration of companies and we need to do something like this…

> Brand 1  
> -Accounting  
> -Maintence  
> -Etc  
> Brand 2  
> -Accounting  
> -Maintence  
> -Etc

All of the sub orgs have roles with different permissions. I am not sure how to handle this as there doesn’t seem to be sub orgs. Is there a good way to handle this sort of hierarchical orgs or is this something I have to manage outside of Auth0?

Hey there @jgleason!

Unfortunately, any sort of nested org hierarchy is not supported - I definitely think this is worth a [feedback](https://community.auth0.com/c/feedback/95) post though. Our product teams monitor these and gauge based on community member engagement.

I believe I have seen this accomplished (within Auth0 at least) by breaking out each Brand in this case as its own tenant and going it about it that way.

We always appreciate the feedback 🙂
