  1. Account: You log in with maria@elegance.com
  2. User/Profile: Your name is Maria González
  3. Company: "Elegance Clinics B.V." is your company
  4. Clinics: You have two locations:
    • Amsterdam clinic
    • Rotterdam clinic
  5. Employees: You work at the Amsterdam clinic, and João works at Rotterdam

Both you and João have:

  • Separate accounts (different emails)
  • Separate user profiles (different names, contact info)
  • But both work for the same company (Elegance Clinics)
