# Team management

The [Team](https://app.wproofreader.com/teams/) page lets you manage who has access to your subscription and what they can do. You can invite new members, assign roles, and remove people who no longer need access.

### Roles

There are three roles in the admin panel. Each role determines which pages and actions are available.

* **Team owner** is the highest-level role. There can only be one team owner at a time. This role is assigned automatically to the person who first sets up the account. The team owner receives all system emails related to the subscription.
* **Admin** can manage most aspects of the subscription, including billing, team members, custom dictionaries, and style guide rules. There can be multiple admins. In the admin panel UI, this role appears as "Administrator."
* **Developer** has read-only access to the subscription and team pages. Developers can work with credentials, settings, custom dictionaries, style guide rules, and analytics, but can't manage billing or team membership.

#### Key permission differences

All three roles can access credentials, settings, analytics, custom dictionaries, style guide rules, and their own account settings. The main differences are:

| Permission                      | Team owner | Admin | Developer |
| ------------------------------- | ---------- | ----- | --------- |
| Manage team members and roles   | Yes        | Yes   | No        |
| Change the team name            | Yes        | No    | No        |
| Manage subscription and billing | Yes        | Yes   | No        |
| Cancel subscription             | Yes        | No    | No        |
| View Products page              | Yes        | No    | No        |

If a developer tries to perform an action they don't have permission for, the button is disabled with the tooltip: "You don't have permissions to perform this action, contact the subscription owner."

### Inviting team members

Team owners and admins can invite new members.

1. On the Team page, enter the person's email address in the **Email** field.
2. Select a role from the **Role** dropdown. Team owners can assign any role (Team owner, Admin, or Developer). Admins can assign either Admin or Developer.
3. Click **Invite**.

The person receives an email invitation to join the team.

### Changing a team member's role

To change someone's role, find them in the **Team members** list and select a new role from the dropdown next to their name.

Admins can assign the Admin or Developer role to other members.

### Transferring ownership

Ownership can't be transferred through the admin panel. If you need to reassign the team owner role, contact the support team.

### Removing a team member

To remove a member, click **Remove** (or **Leave**, if removing yourself) next to their name in the Team members list.
