Turn on BMS for Clients

LiveFor: AdminAccess: Admin for all clients; colleagues who can edit the contact for one client

For one client from the contact, or for all clients at once.

BMS for Clients is off until you turn it on. Turning it on invites nobody: you still choose who gets access to each client.

  1. Open the client, then its Details tab.

  2. Find the BMS for Clients section. While it is off, it says so.

  3. Press Turn on BMS for Clients. Client requests sent from now on open in the portal, and you can invite the people who work with you on it.

  1. Go to Settings > BMS for Clients.

  2. In the banner “Activate BMS for Clients for all contacts.”, press Activate (1).

    Settings, BMS for Clients, with a numbered ring on the Activate button in the banner at the top of the page.
    The Activate banner turns the portal on for every client at once.
  3. Read the confirmation and press Activate.

Contacts > BMS for Clients lists every client with whether the portal is on, how many people have access and how many invitations are open. Press Turn on on a row, or Manage Access to open that client’s Details tab.

Contacts, BMS for Clients: a summary line and a table of clients with columns BMS for Clients, People with access and Invitations.
Contacts > BMS for Clients: the portal at a glance.

Still need help?

Ask your firm's BMS admin first: they can see your access level and your firm's settings. Clients of a firm should contact their accountant.
