About This Feature

Overview

Transfer Super Administrator is a WPS 365 enterprise management feature that lets the current super administrator hand over the highest admin role to another member in the same organization.

It is useful for administrator departure, responsibility changes, and company handover scenarios. After confirmation, the target member receives the super administrator role immediately, and the original super administrator no longer keeps that role.

If your organization needs a focused handover path for the highest admin role, WPS provides a more direct transfer flow. Other platforms also support admin ownership changes, but they often rely on role assignment and removal steps instead of a single transfer action.
