Ajouter des comptes clients
Add your clients to TaxDome one at a time or in bulk via import . Here, we explain how to add them manually.
Client accounts, explained
Client accounts are the entities you work for and bill—either a company or an individual. An account is always linked to one or more contacts, depending on how many people use it.
Creating a client account is an internal action visible only to your firm. It does not grant clients access to the portal. To allow clients to log in , you must check the Login box for their contact and invite them to the portal.
For more details on the difference between accounts and contacts, see Contacts & accounts .

A firm owner, admin or any employee with access rights to manage accounts can create new client accounts.

Click New at the top, then select Account. You can click New on the Accounts page as well.

Pour les noms et prénoms, évitez d'utiliser des caractères spéciaux qui ne peuvent pas être utilisés dans les noms de répertoires Windows. Par exemple, évitez les signes de ponctuation ou les caractères spéciaux, tels que les deux points (:), les guillemets (”), la barre oblique (/), la barre oblique inverse (), la barre verticale (|), le point d'interrogation ou l'astérisque (*). Sinon, vous ne pourrez pas accéder à vos fichiers via le TaxDome conduire.Below, find out more about the numbered items in the New account sidebar.

Avertissement
For first and last names, avoid using special characters that can’t be used in Windows directory names. For example, avoid using punctuation marks or special characters, such as the colon (:), double quote (”), forward slash (/), backslash (), vertical bar or pipe (|), question mark or asterisk (*). If your folder names contain special characters, you won’t be able to access your files via the TaxDome drive.Note
After creating the account, remember to invite clients to the portal to grant them access.
