Change a Team Member’s Role

Change a team member’s organization role, including moving someone between User and Employee.

Change a role when someone’s responsibilities or need for dashboard access changes. Check Roles and Permissions for the access each role provides before making the change.

  • Owner: the only role that can grant or manage Admin access

  • Admin: can manage Users and Employees, but can’t change the Owner or another Admin

  • Owner role: can’t be changed or transferred

Change the Role

  1. Open Team.

  2. Open the person’s entry.

  3. Choose the new role.

  4. Review the change and save.

Only the Owner can grant or manage Admin access. The Owner role can’t be changed or transferred.

Moving Between User and Employee

Change

What happens

User → Employee

Removes their dashboard access to this organization while keeping their person record.

Employee → User

If the person was a User before, their existing login can be used. A person originally created as an Employee may need the invitation or sign-in steps shown by the product.

After granting dashboard access, check their account permissions using Manage Access to an Account.

Review Card Access Separately

Changing a person’s role and changing the cardholder on an issued card are different actions. An issued card keeps its recorded cardholder.

If your goal is to stop card spending, use Freeze or Unfreeze a Card or Close a Card.
