Things administrators need to know

The Business Dashboard is the ideal all-in-one platform for your business finances. It lets you manage and register many things, so you can tailor it to meet your needs and enable your company to move forward 24/7.

Convenient administrator features

As an administrator, you have more powers. That gives you the freedom to respond more quickly to changes in your organisation and the management of business banking and insurance matters.

The administration portal makes life easier for you. Read on to find out more about these convenient features.

  • All administrators have the autonomy and freedom to adjust a number of administrative tasks quickly and flexibly, directly in the KBC Business Dashboard
  • As such an administrator, you can designate new administrators or remove existing ones.
  • We do our utmost to ensure that as many requests and activations as possible are carried out digitally, and to limit the number of signatures needed for approval, enabling a more efficient process.

A practical administration portal with all your administrator features

Administrators have all the administrator features at their disposal in a single, convenient portal:

What administrators can now do

Manage users

Does your company already use the KBC Business Dashboard and one of the underlying apps, such as KBC-Online for Business, Go&Deal, e-DocBox or ComFin Touch?

As an administrator, you can give a new colleague access to these apps in the administration portal.
 

  • The employee is already known to KBC
    The new user can start using the Business Dashboard as soon as you have submitted the request.

    You can also add new users of this kind. They can then complete the request digitally by confirming a number of details. Its quick, easy and completely secure.

As an administrator, you can assign a customised security method to a new user. You can also assign a different security method to an existing user.

Yes, you can also remove users.
