Are you the Site admin as well as the Jira admin?  The Site admin can maintain users and billing, the Jira admin looks after Jira (creating projects etc)

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist-he says "when I click on user management or billing " which is only applicable if you are a site admin ;)

Actually, no, I'm not a site admin on a couple of Cloud sites and the links for user management and billing are in the admin menu.  They take me to an error screen, rightly telling me I don't have access.

(I understand these links are to be removed at some point soon though, as there's no point in taking people to a place they can't do anything with)

Hi @Mouhamad Rifai ,

I would try the same exact action, but with another browser with cleared cache, OR with a private/incognito window. Most likely you might have multiple atlassian ID accounts and you try to log in as a site admin with another ID.

Try what I'm suggesting and let me know if that works.

Alex
