Owner
The user who creates the organization is assigned the Owner role and holds the highest level of access. Owners can invite, remove, promote, or demote any member, and they also manage all features and models. Only the Owner can terminate the organization.Admin
Admins share nearly all the same privileges as the Owner but cannot terminate the organization or modify the Owner’s role. They have full access to every feature and model, and they can invite, remove, promote, or demote any team member other than the Owner.Editor
Editors have full access to all models and can collaborate on tasks like modeling, account mapping, forecasting, and consolidation. They do not, however, manage team members or have the ability to terminate the organization.Viewer
Viewers can see all models within the organization and may download reports and view transaction details. While they have complete visibility, they cannot make changes to models or manage team members.Limited viewer
Limited viewers are only available on Mastery plans.
