• Key Concepts: 
  Parent Finder is a feature of ICM Incentive and Commission Management (ICM) that allows users to quickly and easily identify the parent of any given entity. This feature is especially useful when dealing with complex hierarchies, as it can help users quickly identify the parent of any given entity in the hierarchy. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the Parent Finder feature, users must first select the entity they wish to find the parent of. Once selected, users can then click on the “Parent Finder” button in the ICM interface. This will open a window that displays all of the possible parents for the selected entity. Users can then select the correct parent from this list and click “OK” to confirm their selection. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using Parent Finder, it is important to remember that it only works for entities that are part of a hierarchy. If an entity is not part of a hierarchy, then Parent Finder will not be able to identify its parent. Additionally, it is important to remember that Parent Finder only identifies the immediate parent of an entity; it does not identify any other ancestors in the hierarchy.
