Team Roles: Admin and Member

Captured Knowledge uses two roles to manage team permissions: Admin and Member. Both roles have full access to daily case work. The difference is that Admins can additionally manage the team itself.

What Members Can Do

Members have access to everything needed for day-to-day property management work:

  • Cases — Create, view, edit, and manage cases

  • Emails — Send, receive, and link emails to cases

  • ERP tickets — Create and update ERP tickets

  • Work orders — Create and manage work orders

  • Gustav — Use the AI assistant in all contexts

  • Contacts and properties — Search and link contacts, buildings, and properties

  • Inbound email queue — Review, dismiss, and restore emails

What Admins Can Additionally Do

Administrators have all Member permissions, plus access to team management:

  • Invite members — Send invitation links to add new team members

  • Manage members — Change roles (promote Member to Administrator, or demote Administrator to Member)

  • Remove members — Remove team members from the team

  • Team settings — Adjust team configuration

How Roles Are Assigned

New users joining through SSO or an invitation link are assigned the Member role by default.

Changing roles: A team Admin can change any member's role from the team settings page. Navigate to team settings, find the member in the list, and select their new role.

Protection: The system prevents demoting the last Admin on a team. At least one Admin must always remain to ensure team settings can still be managed.
