Understanding Roles in Genira
In Genira, every user is assigned a role that determines what they can and cannot do within an Organisation account.
Roles are assigned when a user is invited to join an Organisation, but they can be changed later if needed.
Note: A user can only have one role at a time.
Available Roles
Genira supports the following roles:
- Owner
- Admin
- User
