Apply settings for Client Access users

After you enable Accounting CS Client Access for a client and set up security groups, you can enter the rest of the information needed to set up client staff members in Client Access.
For each of your client's members that will use Accounting CS Client Access:
  1. In Accounting CS, select
    Setup
     from the main menu.
  2. Go to
    Firm Information
      and select
    Client Staff
    . 
  3. Select
    Add
     to create a new client staff member, or find and select an existing staff member in the list and select
    Edit
    .
  4. In the Main tab, enter the identification and contact information. You'll need to at least enter an
    ID
    , their
    Last
     name and
    Email
     to create a new NetClient CS portal for them.
  5. If this staff member already has a NetClient CS account, select the ellipsis  for
    Account
     in the NetClient CS Access section. Find the staff member's NetClient CS login ID and mark the checkbox, then select
    OK
    .
  6. In the NetClient CS Access section, select the data location profile from the
    Profile
     drop-down list.
    • Select a unique data location profile for this individual only, or
    • Select a data location for the client that multiple staff members of that client will use. This allows them to share and collaborate in files and applications outside of Accounting CS.
    tip
    Select the ellipsis next to Profile to view a list of accounts and client staff members that have access to that data location profile.
  7. Mark
    Enable FileCabinet CS
     and/or
    Enable Microsoft Office
     if you'd like to give this staff member access to Microsoft Office applications and/or FileCabinet CS.
  8. Go to the Security tab and mark all security groups that apply to this staff member.
  9. Go to the
    Client Access
     tab.
  10. Use the grid to find the client, or clients, this staff member should have access to. Mark the checkbox in the
    Allow
     column to give them access.
    If you can't find the client in the grid, you likely don't have Client Access Services enabled for the client.
  11. select
    Enter
     to save the Client Staff record.
Staff members that already had an existing NetClient CS account should see the clients the next time they sign in and open Accounting CS Client Access. If you set up a new client staff member, they'll get a registration email for them to set up their new NetClient CS portal.
note
There is a
Resend Registration Email
 option on the Main tab of the Client staff screen if they accidentally deleted it or never received it.
