Create a partner on the platform

Create a partnership: find the other environment, send a relationship request and configure permissions.

In addition to the authorisation request (for accountants and intermediaries) you can also manually create a partnership with another organisation. This is useful if you want to collaborate with a supplier, client or partner without the formal authorisation process.

Requirements

To create a partnership you need:

  • The advanced user or administrator role in your environment
  • The relationship manager role (assigned separately by an administrator)
  • A subscription that supports the partnership feature (minimum Basic)

The other party must have the same requirements.
