How does easyAML support a firm with both a legal arm and an accounting arm needing data separation?

Two configurations are supported, depending on whether the firm wants one combined view or strict data separation between the legal and accounting books.

Option 1: One subscription, two sectors enabled.

• Single Professional ($449+GST) subscription.
• Both Legal Practitioners and Accountants ticked in the sector configuration, generating an AML Program that covers both sectors' designated services.
• All users see all customers (subject to their role permissions). Practical for firms where staff move freely between legal and accounting work.
• One $220 monthly KYC/KYB credit on Pro, used flexibly across account.

Option 2: Two separate accounts under one parent subscription.

• One account for the legal arm, one for the accounting / business advisory arm - each with its own Risk Assessment, AML Program, training records and customer records.
• The Compliance Officer accesses both via the entity switcher; each team only sees their own customers.
• Useful for firms with clear walls between practices (separate management, separate billing, sometimes separate ABNs).
• $220 KYC/KYB credit usable flexibly across both sides - billing happens at the parent level.
• Backend configuration by easyAML's platform team is required (typically 1–2 days). Sign up first; mention the dual-arm requirement during onboarding.

Either way, the AML/CTF Program reflects the full scope of designated services the firm provides under both sector lenses. See AUSTRAC's Professional designated services.
