Creating an Organization

Organizations give your practice a shared workspace in Scope. Once you create one, you can invite teammates, share templates, and keep your team's work in one place — separate from your personal account.

Organizations are rolling out gradually. If you don't see the options described here yet, they may not be enabled for your account.

Personal vs. Organization Workspaces

Every Scope user starts with a Personal account workspace. When you create or join an organization, you get an additional workspace:

  • Personal account — your private space. Visits, patients, templates, and chats here are visible only to you.
  • Organization — a shared space for your practice. Work you create here stays in the organization.

You can belong to multiple organizations and switch between workspaces at any time.

How to Create an Organization (Desktop)

  1. Open Scope and click the workspace switcher at the top of the left sidebar (it shows "Personal account" or your current organization's name)
  2. Click Create organization

Open the workspace switcher in the top-left, then choose Create organization

  1. Enter a name for your organization (usually your practice name) and click Create organization

Name your organization after your practice

Scope creates the workspace and switches you into it automatically. This usually takes a few seconds.

How to Create an Organization (Mobile)

  1. On the Home screen, tap the workspace chip in the top-left corner
  2. In the Accounts sheet, tap Create organization

Tap the workspace chip to open the Accounts sheet

  1. Enter your practice name and tap Create organization

Create your organization from the bottom sheet on mobile

What Happens After You Create It

When your organization is ready, Scope shows a short welcome:

The welcome dialog explains your new organization workspace

  • Each space is private — work stays in the space where you created it
  • Your templates came with you — your personal templates are copied into the organization, and your rules and slash commands work across all spaces

If you have patients in your personal workspace, Scope also asks whether you want to bring them along:

Choose whether to copy your patients into the new organization

  • Copy my patients — your patients are copied into the organization; the originals stay in Personal
  • Keep patients in Personal only — your patients stay in your personal workspace

Switching Between Workspaces

Use the workspace switcher (top of the sidebar on desktop, the workspace chip on mobile Home) to move between Personal and your organizations. Everything in the app — visits, patients, templates, and chats — reflects the workspace you're currently in.
