Change Email

This article covers how to change the email address of a client. It’s important to understand that there are at least two (sometimes three) email addresses commonly used by the client:

  1. The Account email - this email address is used for correspondence relating to the account or application workflow, it is generally associated with one legal entity, it can be the same as a user email but does not have to be, e.g. contact@bobbuilder.com

  2. The User email - this is used by the client to login, to receive password resets and is generally associated with one person, e.g. robert@bobbuilder.com

  3. The Profile email (optional) - this email address may be used as part of an application process (e.g. PPP Forgiveness) and is part of a broader collection of data used in a workflow, it may be the same as the account email or it might refer to an 3rd party such as an accountant.
