Roles & Permissions
How team roles work within Trip Owner and Bus Operator organizations.
Overview
Both Trip Owner organizations and Bus Operator organizations support multi-user teams. Each team member is assigned a role that controls what they can see and do.
Roles apply within a single organization. The same user cannot belong to both a Trip Owner and a Bus Operator organization.
The Four Roles
| Role | Description |

| Admin | Full access. Can manage team membership and billing. The account creator is always Admin. |
| Manager | Full operational access. Cannot manage team members or billing. |
| Dispatcher | Operational tasks only. Cannot bid, award, or sign contracts. |
| Viewer | Read-only access to all data. Cannot take any action. |

Inviting Team Members
Only Admins can invite new members. Navigate to Team in the left sidebar and click Invite Member. Enter the email address and select a role. The invitee receives an email to join the organization.
Pending invites count against your team member limit. You can cancel a pending invite from the Team page.
Changing Roles
Admins can change any team member's role except their own Admin role. Click the role badge next to a team member's name to open the role selector.
Revoking Access
Admins can remove team members at any time. Removed members immediately lose access. Any in-progress work (unsaved drafts) associated with their account is retained.
