The Tier Settings menu encompasses both tier-specific settings and permissions, which are used for the tier’s public page and also designated as defaults for users created and assigned to that tier. Within this menu, various aspects can be configured, including Public Profile Settings, Reviews Management Settings, and Social Share Settings, to tailor the tier and user experience and access control within the tier. Updates to a tier’s settings from this menu will not impact or change the profiles or settings of individuals assigned to the tiers.
At the top of the settings menu are key identifiable features of the tier, including:
Tier name | The tier name can be edited here and will be updated across the XMP. |
Parent tier | The tier it is assigned to (under); to move it to a different parent tier, read Move Tiers. |
Tier type | The type of tier it is (HQ, region, branch, etc.); once a tier is created, it cannot be changed |

Social Share Settings

Instead, modifying this setting will become the default values inherited by new tiers or users created within the tier. These settings also dictate which reviews will be posted on the tier’s connected social pages.
