Organization Ownership
An organization owner is a user who can administer the organization: add, view and delete members; change member permissions; create and manage teams and projects; edit billing information; and so on.
The user who created an organization automatically becomes its owner. An owner can also add or remove other owners.
Tip
We recommend that organizations have several owners. This way if one owner is away or leaves the company, there are others who can continue managing the organization.

To remove the Owner permissions from a user, click on the icon and delete the owner role.
Note: Owners cannot remove ownership from themselves. If you are an owner and want to remove the ownership, ask another owner of the organization to do this.
Transfer organization to another owner
To transfer the organization to another owner, you need to add a new owner, update the billing information (if needed), then ask them to remove you from the list of owners:
If you are the only owner of the organization, give another member the Owner permissions (see above).
Ask the new owner to confirm that they can access the organization settings (profile, members, teams).
(Optional, only available for SaaS users) Ask the new owner to update the billing information for the organization.
Ask the new owner to remove the Owner permissions from you.
For On-Premise installations: The organization will now appear under Assigned Organizations rather than Owned Organizations.
(Optional) You can leave the organization now by clicking Leave next to the organization name.
