# Team & Permissions

> Manage who's in your workspace and what they can access: users, groups, and access-control grants.

Custral organizes your workspace around the people in it and what they can reach. You invite **users**, bundle them into **groups**, and control access with **grants**: every Object, Record, Page, and View is an [Entity](/team/permissions/overview) carrying its own access-control list (ACL). A grant pairs a subject (a user *or* a group) with an access level; grants flow down the entity tree by default, and when they overlap the **highest** level wins. **Tasks** turn all that data into tracked, assignable work.

## Feature reference

What each capability does and when to reach for it.

| Feature                | What it does                                                                        | Use it when                                             |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Users**              | Invite and manage the individual people in your workspace                           | Onboarding teammates or external collaborators          |
| **Groups**             | Bundle users into a named subject you grant access to as one unit                   | More than one person needs the same access              |
| **Entities & ACLs**    | Every Object, Record, Page, and View carries its own access-control list            | Always. It's the backbone every grant lands on          |
| **Access levels**      | Read, Edit, Admin, and Owner. Each level includes the ones below it                 | Deciding how much control a subject should have         |
| **Inheritance**        | Access on a parent flows down to child entities until a narrower grant overrides it | You want one grant to cover a whole object or section   |
| **Global permissions** | A grant on the Workspace entity that cascades to everything beneath it              | Giving someone workspace-wide reach in one place        |
| **Tasks**              | Trackable, assignable actions linked to records, objects, or workflows              | Following up so nothing falls through the cracks        |
| **Task types**         | Built-in kinds: Call, Email, Meeting, Follow-up, Review, and more                   | Creating the right kind of action with the right fields |
