New experience when logging in to iBB

Soon we're launching the AIB Business (iBB) mobile app. As a result, you'll notice that the steps to log in to iBB will soon look different. You'll still need to use the same credentials that you use to log in today - your User ID, Password and a One Time Code (OTC) from your Digipass.

If you're authorising an FX payment and using a live FX rate, you'll need to confirm the live FX rate in a second step to authorise the payment.

If you forgot your password or if you're logging in for the first time, you'll need to get a verification code from a Local Administrator.

You can delete users in the new iBB; on the user's profile page.

What's in the new iBB?

Access transactions up to January 2017
View, search and export your transactions all from one page, no more clicking through menu options
Statements are available for select accounts
There is now just one page for all of your payments. From that page you can make:
- Account transfers
- Third Party IBAN payments
- Urgent Interbank payments
- Account Transfer FX
- Third Party FX
- Equivalent amount payments
- Paylink and Paylink Euro payments

If you don’t see a saved Payee from old iBB in new iBB, it’s because there’s invalid information saved with the Payee e.g. IBAN, Bank Code. Please recreate the Payee in new iBB.

You will need to use the old iBB to make any changes to User profiles, including permissions and limits. This is temporary, we will bring these features into the new iBB later this year, and update you with messages in your iBB.

What do you need to know when you receive the upgrade?

Payment Logs

In the new iBB, Payment Log is now located in the Payments menu. This shows all outgoing payments made in the new iBB. Any payments made in the old iBB will not be shown here, to see those you can view your Outgoing Payment Log in the old iBB.

Your account balances and transactions will continue to show all payments made in and out of your accounts, regardless of whether they were made online, in-branch, by cheque etc. In the new iBB you can view these in your Accounts page. Click on any account to see up to two years of transactions.
New Payment Limits

Your payment limits from your existing (“old”) iBB are now available in the new iBB. If you are a Local Administrator you can check this in your existing (“old”) iBB by going to:
Local Admin > User List > Modify > Limits.

If you don’t have this screen a Local Administrator can check this for you.
Changes take affect overnight

Any changes you make in the old iBB to user profiles, user limits, and if you add or delete payees*, they will be applied to the new iBB overnight.

Changes made in the new iBB will not be applied back to the old iBB.

*"Beneficiaries" are now called "Payees".
Will I lose the old iBB?

Not yet, we plan to start disabling the old iBB by the end of 2021. Between now and then we will be improving the capabilities in the new iBB to bring you modern features which are much easier to use. We will give you notice before the old iBB is disabled.
Will my login details change?

Your existing User ID, Password (we're renaming 'Passphrase') and Digipass will work as normal and with the same levels of security. We have changed the login to be all on one page so it’s a little quicker to get through.

You can log in here or if you are logged into the old iBB press the button in your menu called "Use new iBB"
What is the "CML" limits screen in the old iBB?

When your company receives the iBB upgrade we will allocate some of your Company Cash Management Limit to the new iBB. The allocation is based on your past payment values. More information on what your Cash Management Limit (CML) is and how it has been apportioned is available in the CML Limits screen under Local Admin in the old iBB.

Entitlements Changes

1. Changes to Payment Permissions

With our new, simple single way to pay, there’s one payment screen rather than eight payment types to choose from. We’ve also simplified the permissions behind payments.

While your Users will continue to have the same restrictions to accounts and payees they had in the old iBB, there are now three simplified payment permission types:

Internal Transfers: any transfers between your own accounts.
Saved Payee Payments: to saved payees and bills.
Open Payments: to payees who have not been previously saved.

What you may need to do

To prepare your Users to make payments in the new iBB, your Local Administrator may need to first grant them additional permissions in the old iBB. If you need to make changes to your Users permissions please visit www.aib.ie/ibbUserguides. Here you will find the Local Admin User Guide which explains step by step how to manage permissions for each of your Users.

To make these payments in the new iBB	User must be able to do all these processes in old iBB.
Internal transfer	Create Domestic Account Transfer Create FX Account Transfer
Create a ‘Saved Payee Payment’ (to payees and bills)	Create Third Party FX Create Bill Payment Create Third Party IBAN Create Urgent Interbank Create International
Create a ‘New Payee Payment’ (to unsaved payees)	Create Open Domestic Create Open FX Create Open International Create Open Urgent Interbank
Authorise Payments	Authorise Payments

What this means

Let’s look at an example from the old iBB.

If one of your Users was set up to make Domestic Payments from Account A to Beneficiary 1 and Paylink Payments from Account B to Beneficiary 2.

In new iBB, they’ll be able to make Saved Payee Payments from both Accounts A and B to Beneficiaries 1 and 2.

2. Payment Limits

Payment limits have changed in the new IBB.

There is no longer any distinction between first or second authoriser limits, nor any internal versus external limits. Instead, each User has a daily and a transactional limit. If one of your Users has different limits for first and second authorisations, we’ll bring over the greater of the two.

This means that Users can act as both first and second authorisers.

Limits will not apply for payments between accounts of the same Legal Entity.

However, limits will apply for payments between accounts from different Legal Entities which are part of the same Client (Service Agreement).

3. Managing Payees (previously called ‘Beneficiaries’)

We’ve merged domestic and international payees so there’s a single place to manage them from. To create a payee, or new bill, in the new IBB, Users must have the following permissions in the old iBB.

To create or edit a payee or bill in the new iBB	User must be able to do all these processes in old iBB
Create Payees	Beneficiary mgmt. create domestic Beneficiary mgmt. create international
Authorise Payee changes	Beneficiary mgmt. authorise

If Users have payment permissions, they’ll also be able to view payees and bills.

4. Changes to Transactions and Incoming Payment Logs

In the new iBB, you’ll find incoming payment log information within the account details transactions screen. This means your Users can see all transaction and more detailed payment information in one place.

And it will be easier for Local Administrators too, as they will be able to grant a single permission to cover both transactions and more detailed incoming payments information.

To see this more detailed transaction information, you need to ensure Users have all of the following processes in the old iBB:

To see detailed transaction & incoming payment information in the new iBB	User must be able to do all these processes in old iBB
Transactions - View	View Accounts Export Transactions

And, assuming you want Users to see balances in the new iBB, you’ll need to make sure that they have the View Interest permission assigned in the old iBB.

Local Administration and old iBB

1. Local Administrator Changes

Once we have given you access to the new iBB, your Local Administrator will still have to go back to the old iBB to manage your User access and their payment limits. And, any changes you make will not take effect until the next day.

2. You may still need to use the old IBB

There are some things you’ll need to go back to old iBB for, as we continue to develop them for the new IBB. This includes Standing Orders, viewing Consolidated Balances, and searching for cheques.
Self-service Options/Removal of PAC

Users can now unlock their Digipass online without having to contact customer support. From the new iBB login page, Need help logging in.

Local Administrators no longer need to visit a branch to get a PAC when performing a password reset or unlocking a User.

Helpful information for the new iBB

Payments
To create and authorise payments, simply follow the steps below:

Create a Payment

2. Select Pay / Transfer
3. Select the account you want to make the transfer from, from the dropdown list.
4. Insert the amount you want to transfer.
5. Click the ‘account or payee’ button. A pop-up window will appear and you can search for the account / payee by writing their name in the box or by scrolling through the list.
6. You don’t have to, but you can then insert a message to appear on your statement and your payee’s statement, as well as a description of the payment.
7. Finally, select the date you want to make the payment – you can choose today’s date or any date in the next 90 days.
8. Click continue and you will be brought to a payment review screen.

If you don’t have the permission to authorise, click ‘Save for Authorisation’ and let your colleague know to log in and complete the payment that is now in their ‘Authorisations’ list.
10. When your payment is confirmed, you can see all the details of the payment on the final screen and print a copy of the confirmation if you need it.
Top Tips:
- If you do have the permission to approve payments but you would like to make multiple payments today, or if you are not ready to send the payment yet you can choose ‘Save for Authorisation’. Then when you are ready to complete your payment(s) you can find them in the Authorisations page.
- As per step 6 above, we recommend entering a description into the payee’s statement message so they know this payment came from you.

Exporting / Downloading Transactions

Select an account from your homepage
In the box under ‘Transactions’, select the date range you’d like to download transactions for – this can be a custom range (made by clicking a start date and an end date within the calendar) or one of the pre-made ranges offered i.e. last week, this month etc.
The ‘Download filtered transactions’ button on the right of the screen will turn green and you can download your transactions as an excel file.
While we continue to export files in CSV format, we changed the extension from .OUT to .CSV to make it easier to open in Excel. If you want to keep the previous format, when saving the file change the title to .OUT and File Type to all Files. Based on customer feedback, we have also changed the layout of the exported file which includes adding additional columns and merging Debit and Credit transactions into a single column. Please see below for details in case you need to make some adjustments in any applications you are using to upload iBB files.

Stay secure online

iBB will continue to have the same high levels of security, but sadly fraud is a fact of life and so it is important to remain vigilant for scams and internet fraud. Fraudsters may call pretending to be from AIB and ask you to create codes on your Digipass, perform test payments or to authorise test payments. We will never ask you to do this.

You should also be cautious if your computer slows down while using iBB, particularly at log in. This may be a sign of the presence of Malware.
