Training your team on Float

Now you’ve got yourself up and running on Float, it’s time to share the joy with the rest of your team. Here’s how to get your team on board and up-to-date with our cash flow forecasting software.

Why should you add staff members to Float?

• You can add as many staff members to Float as you like, for no extra cost
• You can also choose which clients (if any) your staff members will have access to
• Adding staff members to Float will enable them to learn the software themselves, add their clients to Float, and train their clients
• The more staff members you add, the more clients you’ll be able to offer cash flow services to

How to add a staff member

1. Log into Float
2. Go to your Staff tab
3. Add your staff member to your account by entering their first name, last name and email address
4. Choose which clients they’ll have access to
5. Your staff member will then be sent an email with a link to join Float, if they can’t see this email then they should check their spam folder

Step 3: Review & build upon the forecast, including scenario planning
