For Multiuser access we offer the following roles:
‍
Poster (Mandatory): The poster is the user who will initiate transactions on behalf of the company. The poster will also have access to view all accounts, balances and statements. Note: If you set a minimum limit for the approver the poster’s transactions below that limit will not require an approver.

Approver (Mandatory): The approver is the user who will approve transactions on behalf of the company based on the limits authority set for them.

Inquirer (Optional): The inquirer is the user who will be able to view the accounts, balances and statements of the company. This user will not be able to initiate any transactions on behalf of the company.

Checker (Optional): The checker is the user who will be able to review transactions of the company initiated by the Poster. They will be able to either reject the transactions or submit them to the Approver. (Essentially this is the same as the approver role but with the authority limits setup in such a way that it will need to be approved by another user; in this context it is important to note that if you setup a minimum limit for an approver above that of the checker the checker will be authorized to approve all amounts below that limit)

What is the difference between Corporate Administration and Bank Administration?

In the registration form, you can assign an administrator. The administrator is the user responsible for creating users, limits, restrictions, and amending them in the future. For Bank administration, the client will delegate the administration responsibility to the bank with charges as shown in the Bank’s published Fees and Charges.
