# Change User Roles

An admin can assign a trader role to an admin or an admin role to a trader.

Here's how it's done:

1. Click **User Management** in the side menu, then click the **Users** tab. The current roles for users are shown in the Role column.

2. Hover with your cursor at the end of the line for the user whose role you wish to edit. Click **Edit user role** in the menu that appears.

3. In the **Role** list, click the role you wish to assign to the user, then click **Save**.
The change must be approved by the quorum. Until approved, the intended role is pending.

Fordefi does not allow you to change an admin's role to trader if, by doing so, the number of admins will drop below the number required for the current admin quorum.
