Admin Center - organization settings and billing

The Admin Center is where an Owner or Admin manages the whole organization: its name and logo, every user, team and project, the subscription, and the audit log. It works across all teams owned by the organization owner, not just the team you are working in right now.

At a glance

What it isOrganization-level control panel with seven tabs
Where to find itProfile picture (top right) > Admin Center
Who can use itOwners and Admins only
PlanAll plans. A few tabs depend on your plan (see below)

How do I open the Admin Center?

  1. Click your profile picture in the top right of the navigation bar.
  2. Click Admin Center. The Billing entry in the same menu jumps straight to the billing tab.

You do not need to switch teams first. Only your role counts. Team Leads and Members never see the menu entry, and if they open the address directly they land on an “unauthorized” page.

What is in each tab?

Best practices

  • Give the Admin role sparingly, because Admins can change the plan and seats as well as roles.
  • Set working days, hours and your holiday country before you rely on workload reports, because those reports are calculated from them.
  • Check the Overview tab after any ownership change, because the admin list there is the quickest way to confirm who has access.
  • Use the Refresh button on the Users, Teams and Projects tabs after changes made elsewhere, because the lists do not update on their own.
