Assessments vs Users

Suggest Edits

With the new dashboard comes the concept of users, rather than assessments. A user and an assessment are ultimately one and the same - a bucket in which we can aggregate financial data - however there are some subtle differences between the two, including new features and data points you can now access via a user.

Assessment

User

What is it?

An assessment in the Classic Dashboard is a way to capture all the financial details for a specific person a group of people, like a bucket of information.

When creating an assessment an Assessment ID is generated to be able to identify that assessment uniquely.

You can also add in a First Name and Last Name for the assessment to make it easier to identify for a human.

As user in the New Dashboard is a way to capture all the financial details for a specific person or a group of people, like a bucket of information.

When creating the user a user ID is generated to be able to identify that user uniquely.

It is required to input an Email and a Mobile Number for this user in the dashboard to make it easier to identify for a human. We do not do a verification of check these emails from Basiq’s side. You can also include First Name, Middle Name and Last Name for this user object.
