What company administration covers

In BuildColab the paying customer is the company, not the individual user. One company has one plan, one wallet of credits, one partner directory and one company library. People join the company as members, and each member has exactly one role that decides what they may see and change. Company administration is the set of screens where the owner and the administrators manage all of that.

The company owner is the person who created the company, or the person to whom ownership was later transferred. The owner always has full access and is the only person who can edit the company profile and hand ownership to someone else. Every other member's access comes from their role, which an administrator with the Members (Членове) permission at Edit (Редакция) level sets on the Employees (Служители) screen.

The Admin area of the sidebar

In the company sidebar, the Admin (Админ) entry is pinned at the bottom. Click it to switch the sidebar to the administration menu and open the Organization (Организация) screen. The breadcrumb reads Administration (Администрация) followed by the screen name. The back arrow next to Administration returns you to the company's project list.

An entry you are not allowed to use stays visible in the sidebar with a padlock. Clicking it opens a page that explains why: "You don't have access to this section" (Нямаш достъп до този раздел) when your role lacks the permission, or "This feature is in a higher plan" (Тази функция е в по-висок план) when your company's plan does not include it.

Partners and nomenclatures in the company sidebar

Two parts of company administration have their own entries in the company sidebar rather than in the Admin menu: Partners (Партньори), your address book of the companies you send offer requests to and contract with, and Nomenclatures (Номенклатури), your company library of task templates, materials, labour and machinery used in resource analyses. Both are paid features.

  2. Partners opens the partner directory.
  3. Admin, pinned at the bottom, opens the administration menu on the Organization screen.

Typical sequence for a new company

  1. Confirm the company e-mail and complete the company profile (name, UIC, phone, logo). See Organization profile.
  2. Choose a plan, fill in the invoice details and place the order. Pay the invoice by bank transfer within 5 days. See Subscription, plans and billing.
  3. Review the default roles and create your own if needed. See Roles and Permission reference.
  4. Invite your colleagues by e-mail with a role each, and make sure every member holds a licence. See Members, invitations and licences.
  5. Add the subcontractors, suppliers and clients you work with. See Partners.
  6. Build up your company library of task templates and resources. See Company library (nomenclatures).
  7. Keep an eye on the credit balance for BORO, meeting transcription and 3D/CAD processing, and top it up when needed. See Credits (BORO, file processing).

Common questions

Why do I see a padlock next to Employees, Roles or Sent invitations?

These three admin screens need the Members (Членове) permission in your role. Ask your company owner or an administrator to add it to your role on the Roles (Роли) screen. The Organization and Subscription screens open for every member.

Who is the administrator of my company?

BuildColab has no separate "administrator" flag. Anyone whose role has the Members permission at Edit level can invite people, change roles and manage licences. The company owner always has every permission. You can see who has which role on the Employees (Служители) screen if you have Members at View level.

Can I manage several companies with one account?

Yes. One user account can be a member of several companies. Switch between them with the Organization (Организация) chip at the top of the sidebar. Every company has its own administration, plan, credits and roles. See Create or join a company.

Why are some modules locked with "This feature is in a higher plan"?

Your company is on the Free plan, or a paid plan is restricted because an invoice is more than 5 days overdue, or you have no licence. See Subscription, plans and billing.

Where do I set what a person can do in one specific project?

Project-level access is set in the project, not in Admin: open the project, then Project team (Проектен екип), select the member and use Access level (Достъпност). See Project team and access and Permission reference.

Can BORO do administration tasks for me?

Partly. BORO can list members and roles, create a role, change a role's permissions, change a member's role and show the licence and billing summary. In the BORO panel each change is shown first as an approval card that you must approve (unless your company has set that tool to No approval (Без одобрение) in BORO Settings), and BORO can never do more than your own permissions allow. BORO cannot change your own role or the owner's role.
