Organization Roles
The View, Member, and Admin organization roles, and what each one can do.
Every member holds one organization role. There are three assignable roles, View, Member, and Admin, plus Super Admin, which is reserved for 8090 staff. Assign roles at Settings → Organization → Members.
View
View lets someone see the organization and open the projects they are assigned to, plus any Internal projects. A View member can't create projects or administer the organization. On each project, a View member can only hold the Viewer project role or a Viewer-compatible custom role, and 8090 Software Factory rejects any higher assignment. View always uses a free View seat, never a Full seat. See View seats.
Member
Member is the standard role. Members can be added to projects, and inside each project their access is governed entirely by the assigned project role. Members can also create new projects. Member requires a Full seat.
Admin
Admin has full organization settings and membership management. Admins invite members, assign the View, Member, and Admin roles, manage seats, usage limits, and models, create and edit custom project roles, and create, edit, archive, or unarchive organization projects. An Admin also has automatic Owner access on every project. Admin requires a Full seat.
An organization always keeps at least one Admin. The last Admin can't leave, be removed, or be given another role until someone else is made Admin.
Super Admin
Super Admin is a platform role for 8090 staff. Customers can't assign it.
Capabilities at a glance
These are organization-level capabilities only. What you can do inside a project, with Requirements, Blueprints, Work Orders, and Knowledge Base files, comes from your project role, not your organization role.

Grant admin access deliberately
Admins can manage membership, organization settings, shared resources, usage, and billing, and they act as Owner on every project. Reserve this role for the people responsible for the organization.
