# Administrator tasks for Multi-party approval
<a name="administrator"></a>

As an administrator, you are responsible for managing and creating approval teams. When you create a team, you set the initial approval requirements and invite approvers to join the team.

When a team is active, you can request to update the team description, approval threshold, and approvers assigned to a team. You can also request to delete the team. Requests that you make require team approval to take effect.

**Use the Multi-party approval console for administrator tasks**

The Multi-party approval console is located in the AWS Organizations console, and is an interface for the Multi-party approval admin to create and manage their approval teams.
