When a company is a subsidiary of another company in the system, the two can be linked with a parent/child relationship.
This is for information and reporting purposes only, and is a separate feature from booths having a parent-child relationship, which impacts how booths are displayed on the floorplan. For booth parent-child relationships, see article.
