# Organization model
## Purpose
The initial `Organization` model allows to regroup `User` and `Team` under a same object.
While the purpose was purely technical in the first place, few features emerged afterward.
## Link with the `User` model
Each user must have a "default" organization.
When a user logs in:
- The backend tries to get an existing organization from a "registration ID" or from the user's mail domain
- If the organization does not exist, it is created using the "registration ID" and fallbacks on the user's mail domain
- The user organization is set to this organization.
**Note:** While deploying the new code, we allow the already existing user to not have one.
## Link with the `Team` model
Each team must have an organization. This organization is not defined by the user, but automatically set
using the user's organization.
The team's organization does not restrict the users who can be added to the team.
There is currently no feature relying on the team organization.
**Note:** While deploying the new code, we allow the teams to not have one.
## Organization-related features
### Organization UI
A new interface can be created to allow users to see all members of an organization.
This could be used along with the contacts.
