Organisations
Organisations allow you to manage multiple teams and users under a single managed entity. This powerful feature enables enterprise-level collaboration and streamlined management across your entire organisation.
What are Organisations?
Organisations are the top-level entity in Documenso's hierarchy structure:
Each organisation can contain multiple teams, and each team can have multiple members. This structure provides:
- Centralized Management: Control multiple teams from a single organisational dashboard
- Unified Billing: Manage billing and subscriptions at the organisation level
- Access Control: Define roles and groups across the entire organisation
- Group Management: Create custom groups to organise members and control team access
- Global Settings: Apply consistent settings across all teams in your organisation
Create a new organisation
You can create multiple organisations, but each organisation will be billed separately.
Creating Organisations
To create a new organisation, navigate to the organisation section in your account settings and click the "Create Organisation" button.
Select your plan
Choose from our range of plans for your new organisation. If you want to instead upgrade your current organisation, you can do so by going into your settings billing page and upgrade it there.
Name setup
When creating an organisation, you'll need to provide:
- Organisation Name: The display name for your organisation
Once your organisation is established, you can create teams to organise your work and collaborate effectively. Each team operates independently but inherits organisation-level settings and branding.
Best Practices for Organisation Management
- Use groups effectively: Leverage groups to simplify permission management
- Set default settings: Configure organisation-wide settings for consistency
