Organization vs. Lab Explained

The Organization for your Quartzy account is your company or academic/government institution. Your Lab is your specific lab or team within your Organization. An Organization can have many Labs, while a Lab can only be associated with a single Organization. You may notice references to your Organization and your Lab while using Quartzy, so this page will help explain the differences between them.

If your Organization is based in the U.S. (and/or on a paid subscription plan), Org Admins will be able to access the Manage Organization section. From this section, Org Admins can manage users, manage the org's Quartzy subscription plan and billing settings, as well as set up Integrations and Custom Request Fields for the entire org.  

If your Organization is based outside of the U.S., your Organization will not have Org Admins nor a Manage Organization section.

Getting to the Organization Management page

1. On the top left side of the toolbar, click on the Org name or Lab name to open the menu. Then click the gear icon that appears to the right of the Org name. 

2. The Manage Organization section is where Org Admins can add or remove members from seats, update the subscription billing information and plan, and manage integrations and custom fields.

Getting to the Lab Management page

1. On the top left side of the toolbar, click on the Org name or Lab name to open the menu. Click the gear icon that appears to the right of the lab to which you'd like to make changes.

2. The Manage Labs page is where you can add or remove users from an individual lab, manage lab settings, subscribe to backups, and more. 

Navigating between Manage Labs and Manage Organization

Tip for Org Admins: You can get to the Manage Organization page from the Manage Labs page by clicking the Org Name on the left sidebar.
