Kernel <> Smartsheet POC: Account Hierarchies

Three of the largest account families in the sample. Kernel resolves each entity, enriching at the entity level and adding in relevant hierarchy layers. Contract accounts — separate Smartsheet instances within an entity — sit beneath the entity they belong to and share its Kernel ID. Click on each branch to explore the entity-level data in more detail.

Contract accounts are not duplicates. Each is a distinct Smartsheet instance inside the entity above it, so it carries that entity’s Kernel ID while keeping its own CRM record. Entities sharing a name but holding different Kernel IDs are distinct records — typically a business unit separated from the registered company that owns it.
