  1. Log in to the PI software

  2. Click the gear icon () in the top-right of the navigation bar.

  3. You will land on the Employee Directory within the Administration page.

  4. At the top of the directory, you will see a list of all organization admins. (The checkbox under "Organization Admin" will be selected and greyed out.)

Note: You must be a product admin or higher (i.e., an existing organization admin) to view the employee directory.

Can organization admins revoke access to specific jobs/teams?
