Account access

Who will have access to Business Banking Online for your company and what do you want them to see and do?

  • People who can view accounts and perform tasks such as creating payments are known as Users
  • If you want Users to be able to move money out of your accounts they will need to have an Authentication device. They will be able to approve their payments and those created by others. If they are also a Company Administrator they will be able to approve administrative tasks on Business Banking Online Admin.
  • You can control which accounts Users can see and use.

 

Do you need to restrict access to certain accounts?

You can specify the type of access each User has for an account and control whether they have view only access or can also make payments from it.

 

What do the different User roles mean?

As the Company Administrator, you will need to assign a Role for each User you create. This will determine their level of access to perform tasks when using Business Banking Online. You may also modify a User’s access at any time.

Some of the available roles to select are:

Admin Authorise

This User:

  • May amend the company details and set the company’s Daily Transaction Limit
  • May create and edit other Users, assign Roles and levels of access as well as set Authorisation Limits for Users with the Authorise Role
  • May also Authorise payments
  • May also Create and View transactions
  • Must use an Authentication Device to authorise payments and enter Company Administration.
Authorise

This User:

  • Can authorise payments
  • May also Create and View transactions
  • Must use an Authentication Device to authorise payments.
Create

This User:

  • Can only Create or prepare a payment
  • Cannot authorise payments and therefore does not hold a Authentication Device
  • May also View transactions.
View This User:
  • Can only View transactions and accounts
  • Will not be able to Create or authorise a payment.
No Access

This User will have no access to accounts or workflow

This role may be used for tailoring a User’s access to allow activity on some accounts and no access on others.

Tip:  If a new User is assigned, or an existing User upgrades to, a Role of Admin or Authorise, the Authorised User – Authentication Devise application form is to be completed and lodged. The User will then be issued an Authentication Device for use with Business Banking Online.
