LiveFor: AdminAccess: Admin

Set thresholds for finished-not-billed, over budget, overdue fees and more; daily or weekly digest.

Settings > Alerts sets the rules BMS checks every 15 minutes. Each problem it finds goes into the partner’s Triage, with why it was raised, its figures and a link to where to fix it.

Settings Alerts with Check Now and Edit, the last check time and open alert count, and Money and Deadlines rules such as Completed but not billed, Invoice overdue and Hours over budget, each with its threshold and open count.
Settings > Alerts.
  • Each rule shows whether it is On, its Threshold and how many alerts are Open. Cannot run means the data it needs is missing.
  • Money rules include Completed but not billed, Invoice overdue, Hours over budget and Hours over last year.
  • Deadlines rules include Tax return due and not signed, Lodged at the ATO, job still open and Job completed, ATO still outstanding.
  • Press Edit to turn rules on or off, change thresholds and choose a daily or weekly digest for partners.
  • Check Now runs the check straight away.

An alert is updated while it stays true and resolves itself once its condition has gone. Turning a rule off resolves its alerts.

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.
