# Switching between entities in Payhawk

If you're part of two or more entities within a group Payhawk account, it's important to ensure you're viewing the correct entity. This allows you to access the right cards, create expenses, attach documents to the correct records, and more.

1. Tap your profile picture. On the next screen, you'll see the name of the entity you're currently logged into.
2. To switch to another Payhawk entity account, tap **Switch**.
3. Slide to select the desired entity.
4. Tap **Switch** to confirm.
