# Managing Organisations
Organisations can be managed from the Organisations section from the dashboard by Admin, SuperAdmin and Functional Manager users.
# Functionality
Organisations and sub-organisations can easily be added by Admin, SuperAdmin and Functional Manager users. Besides optionally selecting the parent organisations, it requires only a name. Optionally, roles, a Chamber of Commerce number, branch number and organisation code can be provided. Organisations can also be deactivated.
When deleting an organisation or sub-organisation, you are provided with an overview of the consequences, including the number of users that will be removed on deletion of the organisation.
An organisation can have roles, which determine what kind of (user) roles are allowed to be used in the organisation. Roles can only be managed by users with the SuperAdmin role.
If you are an Admin, SuperAdmin or Functional Manager you can manage the organisations from the options in the left menu. This will provide an overview of all organisations and their hierarchy.

- Organisation hierarchy and name
- Chamber of Commerce number (where available)

Warning

). This will cause you to lose the option to login with your MySignicat account.
