Franks Hot Dogs is a customer of your company and purchases hot dog buns from you. They have multiple restaurant locations that they want you to deliver the hot dog buns to, but they want all of the invoices to go to the corporate office and invoices to be consolidated on one statement. What is the best way to set up this customer?

Select one:

a. Set up each restaurant as a separate customer with the billing and shipping locations the same as the restaurant address.

b. Set the corporate headquarters as a parent customer and set-up each restaurant as a sub-customer. For each restaurant sub-customer the shipping address would be the address of the restaurant, the billing address would be address of the corporate headquarters, and you would select "bill this customer" under billing options.

c. Set the corporate headquarters as a parent customer and set-up each restaurant as a sub-customer. For each restaurant sub-customer the billing address would be the address of the restaurant, the shipping address would be address of the corporate headquarters, and you would select "bill with parent" under billing options.

d. Set the corporate headquarters as a parent customer and set-up each restaurant as a sub-customer. For each restaurant sub-customer the shipping address would be the address of the restaurant, the billing address would be address of the corporate headquarters, and you would select "bill with parent" under billing options.
