The Company Records feature lets you easily track and manage customized legal or operational records—like leases, licenses, and patents—directly within your governance platform. This makes your legal data centralized, flexible, and easier to manage ✨
☝ What Are Company Records?
A Company Record is a structured business object (like Bank Accounts, Licenses, or Construction Permits) linked to a legal entity. Each record is configurable, with its own set of fields, and helps your team manage information that’s critical to your business.
- ❤️ Designed for non-technical teams—no IT needed
- ✅ Fully integrated in your entity profile
- ✍ Customizable fields & attachments
- ⚠️ Limit of 3 custom records per tenant (excluding Bank Accounts)
✅ How to Set Up Company Records
1. Create a New Record Type (Record-Entity)
- Go to Configuration → Data Customization → Records
- Click Add Record
- Enter a name (at least in one language)
- Click Confirm
Each record will include default fields like:
- Name (required)
- Added on (auto-calculated)
- Updated on (auto-calculated)
⚠️ If you've reached the limit of 3 custom records, the Create Record button will be disabled with a tooltip message.
