# Invite and manage team members

> How to give your team access to FikaTrade, and the verified difference between supplier administrators and team members.

Anyone on your team who needs access to FikaTrade is added as a team member of your supplier company.

## Before you begin

You must be a **supplier administrator** to invite, manage or remove team members. Other team members cannot access this page.

## Steps

### Invite a team member

1. Go to Settings → Users.
2. Select **New user**.
3. Enter the person's email address (required). You can also add their name and phone number.
4. Choose their role — **Admin** (supplier administrator) or **Employee** (team member) — see [Supplier roles](#supplier-roles) below.
5. Leave **Send invite email** checked to email them an invitation, or uncheck it to create the invite without sending an email.

The invited person receives an email with a link. Following the link takes them through email verification and account setup, after which they become an active member of your company.

### Change a team member's role

You can change a role while an invitation is still pending. Once someone has accepted their invitation, their role can no longer be changed from this screen.

### Remove a team member

From Settings → Users, select the team member and confirm removal.

## Supplier roles

FikaTrade has two roles at the company level:

| Role                               | Verified capabilities                                                                                                    |
| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Supplier administrator** (Admin) | Everything an Employee can do, plus: edit company settings (General, Branding), and invite, edit or remove team members. |
| **Team member** (Employee)         | Can access the supplier workspace day to day. Cannot edit company settings or manage team members.                       |

This is the only level of access control FikaTrade currently offers at the company level — there are no more granular, per-feature permissions to assign.

<Note>
  We've verified that supplier administrator access is required specifically for company settings and team management. We haven't yet verified every other screen in the workspace for a difference in what Admins and Employees can see or do — if you notice unexpected access differences elsewhere, treat this page as covering settings and team management only.
</Note>

## What happens next

Once your team has access, you're ready to prepare the customer, product and pricing information FikaTrade will use.
