Configure the structure of your retail organization within Retail Core.

Role required: admin

## About this task

In the retail organizational structure, physical stores, regions, and countries are organized in a hierarchy. Retailers commonly organize their structures based on these hierarchical levels.  
Depending on the size of the retailer, support teams can be organized at various levels within the hierarchy. Support teams can be distributed across regions and areas to provide the following types of support:

* Regional support
* Market support
* Central support helps across the entire retailer
