Good to know

  • Every Organisation Manager is also a licence manager for each licence of your organisation. You do not need to add them to each licence.
  • Keep at least two Organisation Managers. If your only manager leaves, contact us to add a new one.
  • Custom layers have a different manager list. See How do I share a layer?
