You need an account with owner or admin access to your organization.

Where organization settings live

Everything about how your organization works is under Settings in the sidebar.

Suggested order

  1. Open Settings → Organization and confirm your organization name, time zone and locations.
  2. Open Settings → Brand & Presence and add your logo.
  3. Open Settings → Workforce Setup and add the roles you staff (for example Brand Ambassador or Server).
  4. Open Settings → Team & Access and invite the people who manage work with you.
  5. Open Settings → Communications to check how messages reach your workers.
Tip

Basic mode keeps the sidebar short. You can switch to Advanced later in Settings → Workspace without losing data.
