Parent Accounts

A parent/child account with MDS allows the financial manager within the department to oversee purchasing activities for that unit.

Some common reasons for using a Parent Account:

• Monitoring spend for a department,division or funding string.
• View which accounts are active or inactive
• To get access to downloadable and/or printable reports about all transactional activity for multiple accounts.
• To see current ship-to and default funding information for each account.
