+.. |Organizations - new organization form| image:: ../common/images/organizations-new-organization-form.png
+
+2. An organization has several attributes that may be configured:
+
+- Enter the **Name** for your organization (required).
+- Enter a **Description** for the organization.
+- Enter **Instance Groups** on which to run this organization.
+- Enter the name of the execution environment or search for an existing **Execution Environment** on which to run this organization. See :ref:`ug_execution_environments` for more information.
+- If used, enter the **Galaxy Credentials** or search from a list of existing ones.
+
+3. Click **Save** to finish creating the organization.
+
+Once created, AWX displays the Organization details, and allows for the managing access and execution environments for the organization.

+Work with Access
+------------------
+
+.. index::
+ pair: organizations; users
+ pair: organizations; access
+ pair; organizations; teams
+
+
+Clicking on **Access** (beside **Details** when viewing your organization), displays all the Users associated with this Organization and their roles.

+.. |Organizations - show users for example organization| image:: ../common/images/organizations-show-users-permissions-organization.png
+
+As you can manage the user membership for this Organization here, you can manage user membership on a per-user basis from the Users page by clicking **Users** from the left navigation bar. Organizations have a unique set of roles not described here. You can assign specific users certain levels of permissions within your organization, or allow them to act as an admin for a particular resource. Refer to :ref:`rbac-ug` for more information.
+
+Clicking on a user brings up that user's details, allowing you to review, grant, edit, and remove associated permissions for that user. For more information, refer to :ref:`ug_users`.
+
+Add a User or Team
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In order to add a user or team to an organization, the user or team must already be created. See :ref:`ug_users_create` and :ref:`ug_team_create` for additional detail. To add existing users or team to the Organization:
+
+.. include:: ../common/permissions.rst
+
+
+
+.. note::
+
+ A user or team with roles associated will retain them even after they have been reassigned to another organization.
+
+
+
+Work with Notifications
+--------------------------------
+
+.. index::
+ pair: organizations; notifications
+
+Clicking the **Notifications** tab allows you to review any notification integrations you have setup.
+
+.. image:: ../common/images/organizations-notifications-samples-list.png
+
+Use the toggles to enable or disable the notifications to use with your particular organization. For more detail, see :ref:`ug_notifications_on_off`.
+
+If no notifications have been set up, you must create them from the **Notifications** option on the left navigation bar.
+
+.. image:: ../common/images/organization-notifications-empty.png
+
+Refer to :ref:`ug_notifications_types` for additional details on configuring various notification types.
