The consolidation feature works a little bit differently with the new system and you won’t be able to view your consolidated memberships until you have completed a few steps. You will have to start by completing your initial sign in for each membership separately. Once you have completed the onboarding process for all your memberships, you can then consolidate them as required. Once you have completed this step, you will be able to sign in once, and switch between any of your consolidated profiles as needed. 


Signers vs. Delegates


There are two main roles in Business Digital Banking: Signers and Delegates.

Signers


Signers are people who have all authority on accounts. They have signing authority for all of their business banking needs. Examples of tasks available for signers:

  • open new accounts
  • add delegates
  • approve transactions
  • pay bills
  • transfer funds

Only signers are able to update contact information, create delegates, and sign up for alerts. Using online banking on your browser, you can edit delegate details and access.

Delegates


Delegates are individuals assigned by signers to either initiate transactions or have read-only access to record and report business finances. Your delegates do not need to be Access Credit Union members.

NOTE: Delegates do not have authority to make changes or inquire with credit union staff about accounts.

There are two types of delegates:

Initiator Delegates

Users with this role may or may not be members of Access and have limited authority on accounts. All transactions ‘initiated’ by these delegates must be approved by the applicable number of signers. Examples of tasks:

  • pay bills
  • transfer funds
  • prepare financial statements
  • reconcile statements

Read-Only Delegates

Users with this role are employees and/or family members who only need access to view specified accounts, but cannot transact or initiate transactions. Examples of tasks:

  • prepare financial statements
  • reconcile statements

One person who has signing authority for the accounts will create a username for the delegate when adding them to the membership. After this, a temporary password will be sent to the signer to enter into the system. Once the delegate is set up, they will use their new sign in information and they will be prompted to create their own unique password the first time they sign in.

Delegates can initiate transactions, but not authorize or complete them. If the business account requires two approvals, the delegate can create a transaction, and then two signers will have to sign in to approve it.
If you have your membership set up as requiring two-signer approval for transactions like bill payments and Interac e-Transfers®, you can approve the transaction within digital banking.
  1. Sign in to digital banking
  2. From the menu, click Business Services > Review Pending Transactions
Note: You can sign up to receive alerts when there is a pending transaction requiring approval. Please note that transactions expire after seven days.
