Company Setup page tour: main cards and settings

Find the main Setup cards for company details, payroll rules, custom fields, email and banking change alerts.

The Setup page (Admin view > Settings > Company > Setup) is one page of cards that set company-wide rules: your company profile, the System Module (advance repayments, timesheet approval, request approval and the Closed Sale Import Lock), pay frequencies, overrides, tiers, custom fields, email, and banking and tax change alerts. You change each card on its own, usually with its Edit button, then Save.

Who can do this: Admins whose permission group can view Settings Setup. Changing a card needs the edit permission for Setup. The Banking & tax change alerts card needs the alerts permission. Some cards appear only for some companies.

Open the Setup page

  1. Select Admin in the Worker / Admin toggle at the top of the page.

  2. Open Settings > Company, then select Setup in the left pane.

  3. Scroll to the card you need and select Edit. When you're done, select Save, or Cancel to throw away your changes.

Closed Sale Import Lock

Stops imports from changing sales that closed more than the number of days you pick. Options: Never (off), Immediately (all closed sales), 30 days, 90 days, 180 days and 1 year (365 days). A sale counts as closed when its final milestone date has arrived and its final commission (or override) has been paid. With Never (off), an import can update any closed sale. See Import sales from a CSV file.

Settings that are on other pages

  • Locations and Departments: their own pages in the Settings > Company left pane.

  • Positions, Milestones and Products: their own items under Settings in the left menu.

Common questions

Why don't I see the Override, Tiers or Custom Sales Fields cards?
Payroll-only SequiPay accounts do not include those cards. A full Sequifi account using SequiPay for payments can still have them.

Why can I see a card but not change it?
Your permission group can view Setup but not edit it. Ask a Company Admin.

Do changes here affect everyone?
Yes. These cards apply to your whole company, so check with your team before you save.
