Introduction

The branch object represents a branch or division within the company. Each branch has a fixed country (jurisdiction) as well as a base currency.

📘
Branches are Optional
Not all companies need multiple branches. They are needed for companies with presence and employees in multiple countries. In some cases they are also needed when a company exists in a single country, but spread out across multiple legal entities (not always though).
