Proposed Territory Question in CRM 2011?

    Is this possible in CRM 2011 online? 

    Business Unit A will have different Territories - East, West and Central 

    Business Unit B may have - North East, South Central, Mid West 

    The accounts under these these territories may only be visible in the respective Business Unit.

    Security roles enable records to be locked down to the business unit level. So if an account is owned by a user or team within Business Unit A - and the roles allow only view, editing, etc... at the business unit level, users in Business Unit B should not see or be able to access the records in Business Unit A and vice-versa. 

    Unless there is more to the requirement - the use of territories really wouldn't have any effect on security.

    Thanks. From what I understand, Territories can include users from different business unit. However, unless users are permitted to other business unit, they won't be able to see the accounts
