The 'Organization'
The organization is the basic structural unit for your account at FTE Tree. Within our applications, an organization is considered an individual entity and functional instance of the software. A user may be part of multiple organizations and see limited data from multiple organizations on their dashboard, but information can’t be shared or moved between organizations. If you have a complex organization, our robust tree structure allows for both flexible and secure setups to accommodate your needs.
Organization Owner
The organization owner is the person who sets up the original account. Please contact us if the organization's owner ever needs to be changed or their permissions otherwise limited.
The owner is given full administrative rights and permission to view everything in the organization and can't be edited by any other user in the organization by default. Please contact us with any questions or needed changes to this user.
Users in Your Organization
Within FTE Tree, the individual user account as it relates to the overall organization's account is referred to as the organization user.
The user's permissions with the application are defined as part of the organization and are independent of any other organization within FTE Tree. This provides the flexibility for an organization to have independent, secure accounts with FTE Tree to allow rigid and secure separation of permissions and data while being able to use a single login. This provides flexibility for both your users and your organization in setting up FTE Tree. The chart below describes how User 3 may be a member of both Organization A and Organization B.
While you can see that User 3 has access to both organizations, User 1 and User 2 only have access to Organization A, and User 4 and User 5 only have access to Organization B. At any time, you may remove User 3's permission from Organization A, and they will no longer be able to access any of your data from Organization A. However, they will still be able to access data from Organization B.
Important: Although a user may be part of multiple organizations, there is never any information or data shared between them. The user must switch to the other organization's account. All user permissions are tied to the organization, not the user's account.
After you create an account, your organization's administrators may also limit the active and verified emails to your company's domain name to which FTE Tree can send emails. Furthermore, we also offer the ability to force your organization's users to enable two-factor authentication to further protect your information.
