Features · Workspace

Assign who uploads, who reviews, and who can post.

Roles stay explicit. Administrators invite people by email, and each person sets their own password.

What it does

A CA firm has firm administrators and juniors. A company has company administrators and company accountants. A client portal user is upload-only. If someone needs more access, Settings shows them who their administrator is.

Administrators invite staff from Settings, Team, with an email and a role. Your plan sets how many team members can join. Juniors in a firm only see the clients an administrator assigns, and they cannot assign clients to themselves.

What it includes

Control who can manage the workspace and who can only do the work.

  • Company administrator: the one business, including inviting accountants and integrations
  • Company accountant: documents, review, ledgers, and the trial balance, without team or integration settings
