1111Your **tenant** is your agency's top-level account. Within your tenant you create one or more **organizations**, which are separate workspaces for different teams, bureaus, or programs. All organizations in your tenant share the same sign-in setup, so one connection to your identity provider covers everyone. What differs between organizations is who belongs to each one, how many seats each one is allocated and what spend caps are set on it, and which product settings each one can adjust for itself.

13Funding flows through **billing accounts**, which are credit and seat pools that Anthropic sets up with your agency. Every organization is linked to exactly one billing account, and several organizations may draw from the same one. The [Seats](/docs/government/tenant-admin/seats) page is where you divide each billing account's seat pool among its organizations, and the [Billing](/docs/government/tenant-admin/credits) page is where you see each account's balance and set per-organization spend caps.

1515There are two admin portals:

1717* The **tenant admin** portal (this one) is where you create organizations, connect your identity provider, decide which organization each user lands in, distribute seats and set spend caps, and set tenant-wide policy. Only tenant administrators can see it.
18* The **organization admin** portal is where each organization's own owners manage that organization's users, seats, and settings. As a tenant administrator, you can open any organization's admin view from the [Organizations](/docs/government/tenant-admin/organizations) page, or you can use the **Switch to org view** link at the bottom of every tenant admin page.

As a tenant administrator, you can open any organization's admin view from the [Organizations](/docs/government/tenant-admin/organizations.md) page, or you can use the **Switch to org view** link at the bottom of every tenant admin page.

2020## Who can use this portal
2121
22Only **tenant administrators** can open the tenant admin portal. Tenant administrators are a specific list of people that are managed on the [Admins](/docs/government/tenant-admin/admins) page, and this list is separate from any role someone holds inside an organization.

3333
341. **[Identity and access](/docs/government/tenant-admin/identity-and-access).** Connect single sign-on so that people can authenticate with their agency credentials, optionally connect SCIM provisioning so that your directory syncs users and groups automatically, and add at least one routing rule so that users are placed in an organization when they sign in. Until a rule exists, nobody else can sign in.
352. **[Seats](/docs/government/tenant-admin/seats) and [Billing](/docs/government/tenant-admin/credits).** Distribute seats from your billing account to the organizations that will use them, and optionally set spend caps.
363. **[Admins](/docs/government/tenant-admin/admins).** Add at least one more tenant administrator so that you are not the only person with tenant-level access.
