# Teams

> Organisations and teams, the two levels of shared work, and what belongs at each.

An **organisation** is the account: billing, domains, policy, and the people. A
**team** is a group inside it with its own members and its own content.

Bought a Teams licence? Start with
[Setting up an organisation](/foliums/blueprintr-user-guide/teams/setting-up-an-organisation).
The licence, the people and the teams all attach to one.

| | Organisation | Team |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Owns content | Yes | Yes |
| Has members and roles | Yes | Yes |
| Billing and licensing | Yes | No, inherits |
| Custom domain and Atrium | Yes | No |
| Policies and audit | Yes | Inherits, plus its own settings |

## When to add a team

Add one when a group needs its own content boundary: a different set of people
editing a different set of blueprints. Do not add one per project;
that is what [portfolios](/foliums/blueprintr-user-guide/organise/portfolios-and-folders)
are for, and they cost nothing to create.

## Built-in roles

Every membership has one of three built-in roles, and they are strictly
ordered: **owner > admin > member**.

| Role | Broadly |
| --- | --- |
| Owner | Everything, including billing and deleting the organisation |
| Admin | Everything operational, short of ownership |
| Member | Read and contribute according to what they are granted |

Owners and admins hold every permission implicitly. Members hold what their
[custom roles](/foliums/blueprintr-user-guide/teams/roles-and-permissions) grant.
