* **Step 1:** We start by creating an organization inside one resource platform. Please [<mark style="color:purple;">**contact us**</mark>](https://senpiper.com/company/contact-us.html) to create an organization and get started. Our team will create a subdomain for you with system admin credentials. All the login details will be emailed to you.
