The firm workspace
The firm workspace
An accounting firm does not manage its own documents: it manages client files. Here is how React Box is organised on that side.

What differs from a company
The firm is a workplace, not one more vault.
- A firm has no vault of its own: it works inside each client's vault, never in an intermediate space.
- The whole navigation is driven by an active client. Pick a file in the sidebar and the sections — vault, third parties, cash, accounting — switch to its data.
- Staff are members of the firm, not of the client organizations: their access follows the connection, not a per-file invitation.
- Every action stays attributed to its author inside the client's file: that is what makes the firm's work legible to the company.
The life of a file
From creation to day-to-day production.
- 1
Create or receive the file
You create the file yourself, or a company already on React Box sends you a connection request.
- 2
Prepare the structure
Vault folders and chart of accounts can be laid out before the client even arrives, from your file template.
- 3
Invite the client
People at the company receive an invitation to join their file and start uploading their records.
- 4
Follow up and produce
Document requests, messaging and audit indicators tell you where each file stands.
