When a parent affiliate refers a child affiliate, the relationship is stored within the system. That child affiliate can also become a parent and refer additional affiliates, creating a continuing chain of relationships.

System Behaviour

• Each affiliate can refer other affiliates as sub-affiliates
• Sub-affiliates can themselves refer further affiliates
• This creates a hierarchical, tree-like structure of unlimited depth
• There is no fixed limit to the number of tiers in a sub-affiliate relationship.
