    Team Management

    Run the practice as one team. Who serves which client, who reports to whom, who has capacity this month, and the work only one person can do.

    The problem

    Everyone holds a piece of the firm. Nobody sees all of it.

    The knowledge sits in individual heads and individual inboxes. It works right up until someone is away, and then the practice finds out what it never wrote down.

    SRSam R.Managing Partner

    Nine clients, one point of contact

    If they are away, nobody else can answer for them.

    AKAlex K.Partner (Audit)

    Overloaded, with no signal to the firm

    It surfaces only when a deadline slips.

    MDMaya D.Partner (Tax)

    The only person who can do transfer pricing

    Away until 23-Oct-2026, with nobody to cover.

    NMNoah M.Manager

    Free capacity nobody can see

    Work is allocated from memory, so it never reaches them.

    Everything in one place

    Every tool a practice needs to run as one team

    FinPera holds the people, the structure and the workload in one record, so the answer to "who is on this, and can they take more?" is already on screen.

    Every member, in one directory

    Role, reporting line, the clients they serve and whether they have room, readable by the whole practice.

    Assign work to a team, not a person

    Group the practice by service line, then staff, message and report on the group. Cover stays with the team when one person is away.

    One working calendar

    Weekends, firm holidays and booked leave in one place, so a deadline is never set on a day nobody is in.

    Holiday Booked leave

    Every engagement follows the exact SOP

    Build the steps once, apply them to any client, and assign each one to a person. Progress is visible to the whole team, so a handover does not start from scratch.

    Everything a partner needs to run the team

    Four views of the same team, each answering a question you ask every week.

    Messaging

    Conversations stay with the work

    Direct messages and group threads sit inside FinPera, beside the client they concern. The thread belongs to the firm rather than to a personal messaging account, so it is still there when the person is not.

    Tasks

    See the workload before you add to it

    Every open task by team member, and the same board grouped by client. You can see who is at capacity and who has room before you assign anything.

    AK12 open · 3 due
    NM7 open · 1 due
    CT4 open
    NV2 open
    MD9 open · 2 due
    SR5 open · 1 due

    The same board groups by client, so you can read it either way.

    Capacity and leave

    Staff from the record, not from memory

    Utilisation is built from time actually logged, open tasks show current commitments, and approved leave is visible before you allocate. Describe an engagement and get a ranked shortlist of who fits.

    MDMaya D.On leave to 23-Oct-2026
    CTChris T.Available38%
    NVNina V.Available44%
    SRSam R.At capacity88%

    Utilisation is shown to partners and to each person about themselves. Nobody else sees it.

    Access

    Everyone sees what their role requires

    Set every module to none, view or edit for each team member. Suspend an account, reset a password or sign someone out of all devices, and each action is recorded.

    Run the practice as one team.

    Join the firms who know who is on every client, who has room this week, and what happens when someone is away.
