What activities can be approved on the mobile app?

  • Professional Third Party Authorities (TPA)
  • User Profile Account Linking/Delinking
  • Wealth Accelerator Withdrawal (Pay Anyone/BPay and Account Closure)
All other activity types must be approved on the online portal.

What are the key sections of the Activities page?

There are four sections within Activities page:

  1. Activity task list: Displays a summary of each activity, with key information including activity title and description and where relevant, related account information and expiry date.
  2. Detailed Activity view: On selection of an activity, detailed information is shown along with any accounts impacted, and the action required to process the activity where relevant.
  3. Filter bar: This has several filters for the 'Activity List', including the ability to search for types of activities, different statuses and date filtering.
  4. Alerts list: On the top banner, you can navigate to the 'Alerts' section of Activities. This is a separate section for all alert activities that do not require review or action by you. 

How do I use the left hand side filters?

Using the left hand side filters, you can quickly show activities specific to six pre-determined views:

  • All: The default view that displays all activities linked to your Adviser Code, with no filters.
  • Archive: Displays activities that have been archived.

How do I use the filter bar?

Using the top filter bar, you can filter the activities using the following actions:

  • Activity type: Use this to show activities based on their type, eg. corporate action, minimum cash alert, pending withdrawal.
  • Status: Use this to show activities based on their status, which can include expired, due soon, awaiting client approval and awaiting adviser approval.
  • Clear: Clears all filters.
  • Refresh: Refreshes the page to fetch any new activities.

How do I archive and view archived activities?

All activities remain in the 'Activities List', regardless of status, unless they have been archived. An activity can be archived manually by selecting the activity and then clicking the archive icon in the top right corner of the 'Detailed Activity' view. Once archived, the activity is moved to the 'Archived' area, which can be accessed using the left hand side filters.

In archive, all details of the activity will be available for audit purposes. You can also unarchive from this page.

Activities that are expired or completed can also be automatically archived. 

An activity that can be automatically archived due to completion includes the Minimum cash alert, which archives once the account is no longer under the minimum cash amount.

The automatic archive feature is automatically enabled on all accounts, although this can be disabled by navigating from the Activities page to the Settings located on the left side column, checking or unchecking automatic archiving, and clicking the Save Changes button.

If you have manually unarchived an activity then it will not be picked up by the auto-archive feature. You will then have to archive that activity manually. This allows you the flexibility to keep an item unarchived if required, whilst still maintaining existing archive settings for other activities. 

What are the types of tasks shown in Activities
