Domain Management Using Management Console Companies

Simplify the management of your Microsoft 365 and Google domains by grouping them into companies within the Management Console. Grouping domains by companies help you to ensure role-based access by company-specific administrators, detailed storage and license usage reports, and accurate billing. You can use the existing company for this purpose or create a new one.
