After you add a verified bank account to your Bill.com account, you can add additional users to pay bills from that bank account.
Only admin users verified on a bank account can add other users to use that same bank account. The added user must have the required Pay permissions set by their role assigned before being added.
Roles with pay permissions include:
- Payers
- Administrators
- Custom roles with at least the Pay approved bills via Bill.com setting enabled
