If sponsored subscriptions are enabled, any organizational administrator or unit lead can also register for a sponsored subscription to allow them to create reviews outside of their organization's portfolio.

Someone with multiple roles can switch between roles to enable the permissions they wish to use. 

Only organization administrators can view all roles that a person holds within the organization. See Roles.


Permissions around authorship

Please note that authorship changes can be made if the review has an active project. Certain functionalities will be disabled while the review is inactive.
