    I have a need to be able to add multiple locations and an employee list with “employee services” by category.

    For example, I have 200 hundred Offices Nationally.

    One primary listing and 199 franchise offices

    In each office I have numerous employees with distinct services functions.

    For example:
    1. Accounting
    2. Underwriter – Transportation
    3. Underwriter – Workers Compensation

    And so on….

    The primary CTP is say “Managing General Agency” with 200 offices and 500 employees.

    I need to be able to find the Managing General Agency that offers those specific categories and then locate the Underwriter that handles that product in a search.

    How can I accomplish this? Would I simply supply the Managing General Agency with a discount coupon for adding offices, so that I can re-label “franchise” to Employee List?

    It seems that I would need a Employee Directory for each Office location along with the necessary fields and categories.

    Is this even possible?

    Best regards,

    It sounds possible, yes, linking one CPT (employees) to another (offices/companies).

    For search you would probably want to have something about the company in the employee description content.

    Is it not simpler to have one CPT with franchises for the branches, and a multiselect for types of “employees with distinct services functions”.
    That way you can tick the functions you are looking for and search by location.

    Or do you want to add each employee by name, contact details etc too?

    If you want to add individual employee details then you will need an extra CPT.
    Searching can be done by one CPT at the time only, so visitors would need to search for employees, and then the employee listing will be connected to the business listing in another CPT.
    Limiting access to certain pages and searches is not part of GD support, you can contact the Editor developers for that.

    Thanks
