How to create a client account ?

A bank client is a person or entity that maintains a financial relationship with a bank, utilizing various banking products and services such as deposit accounts, loans, credit cards, investment services, and other financial services. To create a client, go to: the Institutions menu >> Clients.”

After clicking on the customer sub-menu, you will see the window (see screenshot on the right) with a search bar to facilitate finding a client, and a list of clients will be displayed if there have been any registrations, with their names, account numbers (client number), status, offices, and staff. If you see an orange square in the status field among the names, it means the client is pending; green means active. You have a button to import a client and a button to create a client. Click on the create a client button and the form below will appear.
