# Team and seats

Invite people to CRE Agents, group them into departments with their own catalog menus, make someone an admin, or remove a seat.

![The Team page: 3 of 3 seats in use, Request a seat and Invite someone buttons, a Departments list (Everyone, Acquisitions, Asset Management and others), and a table of people with their catalogs, credits, hours back and last run.](https://docs.creagents.com/media/firm/team.webp)

*Team shows every seat: their catalogs, the credits they've drawn, hours back, and when they last ran a task.*

## Invite someone

1. On **Team**, click **Invite someone**.

2. Enter their email, name and job title, pick their department, and pick **Member** or **Admin**.

3. Click **Send invite**. They get an email to connect their AI.

The same row is in [firm setup](https://docs.creagents.com/firm/setup.md), where you can also **Upload a CSV** of people.

> **Add a few people at once.** Open [Ask Vic](https://docs.creagents.com/portal/ask-vic.md) on a Firm page and type something like "Add priya@acme.com and tom@acme.com to Acquisitions", or attach a CSV. Vic lists the changes, and nothing happens until you confirm.

> **Out of seats?** When every seat is in use, inviting is blocked. Click **Request a seat** to message CRE Agents, and we'll add one.

## Departments

A department is a group of people with its own menu of catalogs. People in it choose their catalogs from that menu, up to the number your plan allows per seat. Anyone not in a department picks from the firm's full menu.

*Picture: The firm's public catalogs. A department puts some of them on its menu. Each person in the department picks catalogs from that menu, up to the number the plan allows.*

To make one, click **New department** under Departments, name it, and pick the catalogs for its menu.

![The New department dialog: Name, Description, and a Menu of catalogs to click, with Create department and Cancel.](https://docs.creagents.com/media/firm/team-department.webp)

*Departments use public catalogs. Private catalogs built for your firm are added by CRE Agents.*

Deleting a department moves its people to the firm's full menu. Nobody loses a seat.

## One person's seat

Click anyone in the table to open their seat. From there you can move them to a department, see their recent runs, make them an admin (or a member again), or remove the seat.

> **Changing someone's email.** To change the email address on a seat, message CRE Agents from **Message the team** in the portal, and we'll change it for you.

> **The last admin.** A firm always keeps one admin. The last admin can't be removed while other members remain, so make someone else an admin first.
