About users who can manage your enterprise account
Currently, there are two administrative roles available in enterprises: enterprise owners, who can access and manage all settings across the enterprise, and billing managers, who can access and manage only the enterprise's billing settings. Enterprise owners can also see all of the members and outside collaborators for every organization owned by the enterprise. For more information, see "Roles in an enterprise."
If your enterprise uses Enterprise Managed Users, enterprise owners can only be added or removed through your identity provider. For more information, see "About Enterprise Managed Users."
Tip: For more information on managing users within an organization owned by your enterprise account, see "Managing membership in your organization" and "Managing people's access to your organization with roles."
Inviting an enterprise administrator to your enterprise account
After you invite someone to join the enterprise account, they must accept the emailed invitation before they can access the enterprise account. Pending invitations will expire after 7 days.
You can see all pending invitations to become an administrator of your enterprise account. For more information, see "Viewing people in your enterprise."
