A special role for external accountants:

  • Customers
  • Projects
  • Contracts
  • Objects
  • Time Registration
  • Reports
  • VAT
  • Settings

Edit permissions

For each accessible page, choose whether the member can:

  • View only — Read access, no modifications
  • Edit — Full read/write access

Accountant contacts

Manage external accountant relationships:

  1. Go to Settings > Team > Accountants
  2. Click Add Accountant
  3. Enter their name and email
  4. Click Invite to send access
  5. Configure their specific permissions

Managing accountant access

  • Invite — Send or resend the access invitation
  • Revoke — Remove access (can be restored later)
  • Restore — Re-enable previously revoked access
  • Update permissions — Change what they can see

Switching workspaces

If you're a member of multiple workspaces (companies), switch between them:

  1. Click your account menu
  2. Select Switch Workspace
  3. Choose the workspace

Or create a new workspace from the same menu.

Tips

  • Use the accountant role for your bookkeeper — it provides exactly the access they need
  • Set member permissions thoughtfully — not everyone needs access to billing or team settings
  • Review team access periodically, especially when team members change roles

INFO

Team management beyond 1 member requires the Pro plan. Unlimited members are available on the Business plan.
