For owners with more than one company
Working across multiple businesses.
If you own more than one business — or you’re a manager, accountant, or board advisor who works across several — bsns.cc treats each as its own tenant. One sign-in, separate books for each business, and a switcher that lets you move between them or look at everything at once.
One identity, separate businesses
Your account is you. The businesses you belong to are attached to that account as memberships. Each business has its own:
- Customers, vendors, employees.
- Tasks, invoices, expenses, contracts.
- Bank connections, payment provider, branding.
Nothing crosses the line by accident. An invoice in Acme LLC is never going to show up under GNA. If you create a customer in one, it doesn’t appear in the other — even though the underlying app is the same one you’re using.
Switching between businesses
Every page in every app has a slim bar at the top that says Working as <business name> with a Switch dropdown. Pick another business and the page reloads as that one. Your filters and your draft work follow you across the switch wherever it makes sense.
Native mobile apps are in development and will carry the same switcher when they ship.
Portfolio view vs. focused view
A switcher with a hundred businesses gets unwieldy fast. Portfolio viewis the answer for people who watch several at once: instead of picking one business, you pick “All tenants” (web: Portfolio; mobile: top of the picker) and the parts of bsns.cc that can usefully aggregate will do so.
Focused viewis the opposite: you’ve picked one business and everything you see, type, click, and create lives inside it. Most of the day this is the right mode — especially if the work in front of you only belongs to one business.
What aggregates in portfolio
- work— your inbox shows tasks from every business newest-first, with the business name on each row. The dashboard renders a per-business rollup with KPIs (open A/R, my open tasks, pending approvals). Finance sums cash, A/R, and A/P across every business you own.
What stays per-business
The following apps are inherently single-business surfaces. An invoice belongsto a single set of books; a contract is between two specific parties; a guest list lives with one business’s event history. Additional apps follow the same rule when they are enabled for your account.
- tabs
- bill
- pact
- rsvp
When you’re in portfolio view and you tap one of those apps, it opens against whichever business is your default for that app (usually the one you signed up with first). The chip will still say “All tenants” — that’s your preference, not a promise that every app aggregates. Switch to focused mode if you want to be sure which business you’re looking at in those surfaces.
What happens when I create something?
Whatever you create belongs to the business you’re currently working as. Create an invoice in billwhile focused on Acme — it’s an Acme invoice. Assign a task to a teammate while focused on GNA — it’s a GNA task that shows up on their GNA dashboard.
One useful exception: when you assign a task to someone in a different business than the one you’re currently in, the task lives with them — in theirbusiness — not yours. The record of who created it (and which business you were sitting in when you created it) is preserved in the activity log. This matches how real work flows: handing something off to a partner doesn’t turn it into your problem.
Permissions across businesses
Each business has its own roles. You might be an owner in Acme, a member in GNA, and an accountant-only role in a third. The role you have decides what you can do in that business; switching between them doesn’t change those roles.
If you don’t see one of your businesses in the switcher, your membership has been deactivated. Reach out to that business’s owner to be re-added.
