Hierarchy Example

In this diagram of a relatively simple hierarchy, a merchant organization has two structural organizations: one for eCommerce, and one for physical store locations. Transacting organizations are added under the structural organizations. This is an example of using structural organizations to represent card-not-present transactions (online transactions) and card-present transactions (physical store locations). The Stores node has two physical locations that process payments. The eCommerce node has one transacting organization, which represents a payment form on a website.
