What is an Organization?
An Organization is the top-level structure in Royaltyport that represents your company, team, or business unit. Organizations contain projects, manage team members, and provide a centralized view of entities across all your work.
Key Concepts
Projects
Workspaces where you manage contracts, catalog, and statements for specific artists, labels, or purposes.
Entities
Companies and organizations shared across all projects in your organization.
Settings
Organization-wide configuration, members, and security settings.
Organization vs Project
Understanding the relationship between organizations and projects is key:| Level | Scope | Contains |
|---|---|---|
| Organization | Company-wide | Projects, shared entities, team members, security settings |
| Project | Specific work | Contracts, catalog, statements, CRM data, project-specific settings |
When to Use Multiple Projects
Create separate projects for:- Different artists or roster members
- Different business units (publishing vs recordings)
- Different clients or partners
- Regional operations (US catalog vs UK catalog)
Data Separation
| Data Type | Scope | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Team Members | Organization-wide | Access controlled per project |
| Entities | Project-specific | Can be linked across projects |
| Contracts | Project-specific | Fully isolated per project |
| Catalog | Project-specific | Recordings and compositions are project-bound |
| Statements | Project-specific | Financial data stays within projects |
| Security Settings | Organization-wide | SSO and audit logs apply to all projects |
