Existing IB Brokerage Accounts

The Existing IB Brokerage Accounts page lets you link an employee’s IB account to EmployeeTrack. You link an employee by entering employee information on the Existing IB Brokerage Accounts page, then sending an email invitation to the employee to join EmployeeTrack. Once the employee accepts the invitation, his or her account is linked. You can set up and automatically transmit daily reports on all employee IB accounts to your legal department to ensure ongoing compliance with in-house and external reporting requirements.

When you first log into EmployeeTrack Management, you link employees as part of the setup process. Over time, however, you will need to link new employees’ existing IB accounts and existing employees’ new IB accounts.

You can also link multiple employees’ existing IB accounts by creating then uploading a Mass Employee Upload file.
