The Business Unit feature provides an extra layer of data access security by segregating data for different parts of the corporate structure. Business Units represent subdivisions of your organization and are created and maintained in the integrated Commissions product. 

You can assign a Business Unit to any of the following entities: 

• Participants
• Positions
• Titles
• Accounts
• Products
• Products Family

When you change a business unit on an entity, the following information is displayed in the editing window:

• Object: Displays the object type
• Name: Displays the name of the object
• Current Business Unit: Displays existing related business units
• New Business Unit: Displays the pending business unit change after you run the validation
• Change Allowed: Indicates if the change is allowed, based on the related objects
