Role Settings:
TaxBandits provides access to role-setting functionality, allowing you to assign different access levels to your team members based on their responsibilities for preparing and filing reports. This feature ensures that each team member performs their designated roles and responsibilities effectively. The following roles are available within this functionality:
- BanditSolo: BanditSolo is perfect for small teams where all members share equal responsibilities. Every team member has full access to the system, enabling them to prepare, edit, approve, pay, and transmit BOI reports. This setting promotes collaboration by allowing everyone to perform any task related to the report without restrictions.
- BanditDuo: BanditDuo provides two distinct roles: Preparer and Approver. The Preparer can create and edit forms, while the Approver has full access to prepare, edit, pay, and transmit the reports. This setup is ideal for teams that require a clear separation between preparation and final approval.
- BanditTrio: BanditTrio offers three specific roles: Preparer, Approver, and Transmitter. The Preparer is responsible for creating reports, the Approver reviews and approves them, and the Transmitter handles payment and submission. This setup ensures a clear division of duties, enhancing accuracy and accountability in the reporting process.
Access and Responsibilities

Co-Admin: The Co-Admin role provides similar capabilities to the Admin but with some limitations in specific areas. This role supports the Admin by performing most functions necessary for managing the filing process while offering a layer of oversight and assistance. Restricted access in certain areas helps maintain control over sensitive aspects of the workflow.
Preparer: The Preparer is responsible for entering and organizing reporting information within designated sections of the report. This role focuses on data accuracy and meticulous entry, ensuring that all information in the report is prepared correctly and accurately before the report is sent to the approved status.
Approver: The Approver reviews and approves the reports prepared by the Preparer. This role ensures that all reports comply with regulatory standards and maintain high-quality control. This role is essential for validating the accuracy and completeness of the report before submission.
Transmitter: The Transmitter is responsible for the final step of the process. Submitting the reports to the appropriate entities. This role ensures that everything is filed correctly and on time, guaranteeing that all submissions are completed securely and efficiently.
