📘 Managers setup & management

This guide helps you manage your Redokun managers. Learn how to invite or remove managers, transfer team ownership, or leave your team.


👥 What happens when you add a new manager to your team?

When you invite a new manager to your team, they gain access to all shared team resources—past, present, and future. This includes:

  • 📄 Documents
  • 🌐 Translation Memories
  • 📚 Glossaries
  • 🔧 Any features included in your subscription plan (e.g., AI Translation, integrations)

This means:

  • The new manager will be able to view and manage all assets added by other team members.
  • Any documents, TMs, or Glossaries added by the new manager will instantly become accessible to all other managers in the team.

✅ Redokun is fully collaborative—everything is shared among managers by default.


👤 Add a Manager

Any manager can invite new managers, as long as your plan has a Manager seat available.

  1. Click Team in the navigation bar.
  2. Click Invite member.
  3. Enter the person’s email address.
  4. In Role, select Manager.
  5. Click Invite.

The new manager appears in the team list with a Pending invitation label until they accept.

ℹ️ Managers always have access to all languages and can always edit the Glossary and Translation Memories.

💺 Available seats for each role are shown at the top of the Team page. If no Manager seat is left, the Manager role can’t be selected: remove an existing user or click Buy more seats.

🔁 Change a member’s role

You can turn a translator into a manager, or a manager into a translator, directly from the team list.

  • The Team leader can change the role of any member.
  • Managers can change the role of translators.
  1. Click Team in the navigation bar.
  2. Find the member in the list.
  3. Click their current role in the Role column.
  4. Select the new role.

⚠️ The new role needs a free seat. If none is left, you’ll be asked to free one up or buy more seats.

🗑️ Remove a Manager

Only the Team owner can remove managers.

  1. Click Team in the navigation bar.
  2. Find the manager and click the three-dot icon at the end of their row.
  3. Select Remove.
  4. A confirmation message will appear. Click Remove manager again to finalize the action.

❗ This revokes the user’s access to documents, settings, and Translation Memories. All their documents and folders will be automatically reassigned to the team owner.


🔄 Change the Team Owner

Only the current Team owner can hand over the role, and only to a manager who has already accepted their invitation.

  1. Click Team in the navigation bar.
  2. At the top of the page, click Change next to Team Leader.
  3. In the Team leader dropdown, select the new Team owner.
  4. Click Save changes.

⚠️ The new Team owner will gain full permissions, including billing access. Learn more about what owners and managers can do →


🚪 Leave the Team

If you're not the team owner, you can leave the team from your account.

  1. Click on your name in the upper-right corner and select Settings.
  2. Navigate to the Managers tab.
  3. Click the Leave team button next to your team name.

⚠️ Leaving a team removes your access to all team projects and settings. Any documents you uploaded will be automatically transferred to the team owner.
