You will do the same with the **Accounts** and with the **Permissions**.

You will grant access to the accounts you connected, for example, your WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram accounts. These accounts are the ones departments will be able to use. For example, **the Support Department will have access to the WhatsApp accounts.**

Remember that the permissions were the same ones you created in the Permission Group section. For example, **the** **Sales Group** **may have access to the Sales Department**.

You can add **Subdepartments**, for example, WhatsApp, which is a subdepartment of Support.

**Follow the step-by-step:**
