In CucumberStudio, an organization is a collection of user accounts. It often matches a team of professionals working on the same project. You use organizations to quickly add users to a project in CucumberStudio and to give them respective permissions.
Manage organizations

Don’t confuse the user role in an organization with the user role in a project.

Administrator |
Can add and remove users, view and modify the billing information of the organization. |

Member |
The user has read-only access to the organization info. In projects which the organization owns, you can assign another role to that user: Member, Tester or Reader. |
|
Reader |
The user has read-only access to the organization information. Also, it has the Reader role in all the projects that the organization owns, and that project role cannot be changed. |

If the organization administrator is not a member or administrator of a project, CucumberStudio shows the Get administrator rights button (see above) to allow that person to assign a project and become an administrator in it.
You can also assign a project to an organization from the Project Settings page.
Manage subscription
Organizations use one of subscriptions that specify the maximum number of seats (that is, users) in that organization and features available.
By default, an organization has two users maximum. To have more, subscribe to CucumberStudio and select a pack that fits your needs.
To subscribe, you must have an Administrator role in the organization:
-
