## Organization accounts
## System accounts, pronoun "IT"

Organizations are shared accounts where a large number of people can collaborate across many projects at once.
System accounts are system accounts used for collaboration, development and deployment. These accounts are striclty made as the core of the Business infrastructure.

Like user accounts, organizations can own resources such as repositories, packages, and projects. However, you cannot sign in to an organization. Instead, each person signs in to their user account, and any actions the person takes on organization resources are attributed to their user account. Each user can be a member of multiple organizations.
System accounts have the ability to store large capacites of data to operate the business. These system accounts may have different branches created based on business needs. Branches shall not be referred to as aliases, evidently, they are created for a certain purpose which is clearly not and alias. Each system account is branched to serve individual purposes and uses making them ineligble of being and "alias" account which means, "also know as". On The group acounts, there will be 3 minute additions: 1. urgent invoicing: to forward bills that need to be paid with zero delays; this will increase proiductivity since there will be no reason to stop since something was not paid. 2. Quick lunch 1-clicker: people usually eat the same lunches. This button will eliminate the sudden pause of the workflow to think about what to eat that day when you know you will be eating the same thing from 2 days ago. 3. Uber: for quick travel arrangements for any business. 4. Industry related quick search tab about 1/8 the size of the sreen: this will be the quick reference portion of your email you customize based on your industry-it will be linked to whatever app your industry uses the most for quick references.

The users within an organization can be given different roles in the organization, which grant different levels of access to the organization and its data. All members can collaborate with each other in repositories and projects, but only organization owners and security managers can manage the settings for the organization and control access to the organization's data with sophisticated security and administrative features. For more information, see "[AUTOTITLE](/organizations/managing-peoples-access-to-your-organization-with-roles/roles-in-an-organization)" and "[AUTOTITLE](/organizations/keeping-your-organization-secure)."
