The general format for citing an article using APA 7th ed. is:
Author, A. A., Author, B.B., & Author, C.C. (Date). Title of article. Title of Periodical, xx(i), pp-pp. https://doi.org/xxxx
Examples of periodicals include newspapers (Wall Street Journal), magazines (Newsweek, Fortune), trade journals (Chain Store Executive), and scholarly journals (Journal of Business Ethics). The DOI tends to be available for scholarly journals but not the other types shown here.
APA 7th ed. explains that database names do not need to be included in the references of these types of articles because they are often widely available (p. 297).
According to the APA 7th ed., if you retrieved an article from a database, there is no need to include the database name in the reference nor a URL because they are widely available (p. 317). In this case, the article was retrieved from Business Source Complete.
In addition, if there is no author, use the article title as author. For the in-text cite, italicize the source if it is italicized in the reference. If not italicized in the reference, capitalize what you use using title case (p. 265) and place quotation marks around it.
