# Bring on a teammate with the right access

> Give a new hire a seat, a role, and only the admin permissions they should have.

## Why this matters

A new teammate needs access on day one, but not to everything. Inviting them with the right role and only the permissions their job needs keeps client money and firm settings in the right hands.

## The steps

1. [Invite people](https://docs.moodiri.com/settings/invite-people): Invite the new teammate by email; the invitation uses an available seat.
2. [Accept a team invitation](https://docs.moodiri.com/getting-started/accept-a-team-invitation): Your teammate accepts the invitation within 7 days.
3. [Set roles and admin permissions](https://docs.moodiri.com/settings/set-roles-and-admin-permissions): Set their role and only the admin permissions they need.
4. [Manage seats](https://docs.moodiri.com/settings/manage-seats): Add, unassign or reassign seats as your team changes.
5. [Manage subscription and payment method](https://docs.moodiri.com/settings/manage-your-subscription): Review your subscription and payment method after the seat change.

## Good to know

- Invitations expire after 7 days. Resend one if it lapses.
- Only the owner can change roles or admin permissions.
- You can't invite without a free seat. Add a seat first, or unassign one from someone who has left.
