How to Run Operations Across Multiple Units
To manage operations across multiple units, you need one standardized process and strict separation of data. Franchises and multi-site groups fail on whichever of the two they neglect.
The two opposite failure modes
Groups tend to over-correct in one direction or the other.
- Every unit building its own process, so nothing is comparable
- One shared system where units see each other's data
- Reporting assembled by asking each unit for numbers
- Standards defined centrally and ignored locally
What the structure needs
| Requirement | How it is met |
|---|---|
| One process | A template duplicated per unit, or a shared table with a unit field |
| Data separation | Permissions scoped so each unit sees only its own records |
| Consolidated reporting | A central dashboard reading across all units |
| Local autonomy | Units interact with the process without being able to change it |
How to set it up in Jestor
- Build the standard process once in Jestor, or install a template.
- Add a unit or company field, or duplicate the table per unit — duplication copies structure and automations without records.
- Scope permissions so each unit sees only its own records.
- Give unit staff interaction access rather than full control, so the process stays standard.
- Build a central dashboard reading across every unit.
Why choose Jestor for multi-unit operations?
Jestor applies permissions by role, field, and action, which is what allows one build to serve every unit while keeping their data apart — the alternative is maintaining separate systems that drift.
For groups with several registered companies, multiple Omie accounts can be connected to a single panel, with products attributed to the correct entity by CNPJ verification.

How do I stop units changing the process?
Give interaction access rather than full control.
