Get set up for access

  1. Contact your implementation manager to discuss getting set up for providing ByAllAccounts aggregation to Advisors.
  2. Your implementation manager will:
    • Review your statement of work (SOW) to confirm use case details which will inform how we configure your access to our system.
    • Create a definition for a Firm in our system, configured for your needs.
    • Provide you with an Administrator login and password to perform DataConnect API calls for registering and authenticating Advisor users and collecting aggregated data.
    • Provide you with a "technical support administrator" login for AccountView, which can be used as an effective troubleshooting tool for data and connectivity errors.
