Message Summary
Operational hierarchy will enable admins to map their organization’s structure of frontline teams/locations to a hierarchy in the Teams Admin Center. Admins can define metadata that ranges from department information to brand information metadata for each team/location. The operational hierarchy coupled with this metadata will enable numerous frontline apps and experiences in the future like task publishing and others that are forthcoming.
