## Fields

| Field                    | Description                                                                                                               |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Subsidiary Status**    | Toggle to enable or disable this subsidiary in the portal. When disabled, users assigned to it can't log in.              |
| **Name**                 | The subsidiary's name as it appears in NetSuite. Read-only: pulled directly from NetSuite.                                |
| **Legal Name**           | The official legal name of the subsidiary. Read-only.                                                                     |
| **Subsidiary Label**     | An optional short label shown in the portal UI instead of the full name. Useful if the NetSuite name is long or internal. |
| **Hide Subsidiary Name** | When enabled, the subsidiary name is hidden from users in the portal header.                                              |

Click **Save Changes** at the top right of the page after making edits.

## Tips

* Use **Subsidiary Label** to display a more user-friendly name in the portal without changing anything in NetSuite.
* **Hide Subsidiary Name** is useful in single-subsidiary deployments where showing the name adds no value.

{% hint style="info" %}
Disabling a subsidiary here doesn't affect anything in NetSuite itself; only the <code class="expression">space.vars.productName</code> portal access is affected.
{% endhint %}
