Customers who are liable for VAT can create online accounts for their colleagues. These accounts will be linked to your company and any purchase made by your colleagues will be linked to your company.

This is how to create an account for one of your colleagues:
1. Log in to our website with your online account
2. Go to the back office for your account
3. Click the 'manage sub-accounts' link in the menu on the left. If you cannot find this link, you may not have a 'manager' account. Contact us via our contact form to ask for one
4. Click the 'Create a new sub-account' button at the top of the page
5. Choose the company contact for whom you want to create an online account. These are contacts that are already in our system; if the contact you are looking for is not on the list or is incorrect, contact us via our contact form
6) Confirm their information:
a. Name
b. Email address
c. Telephone number
7. Assign rights to the account you want to create; there are seven types:
1. Able to change delivery addresses: allows the account user to change, create and delete delivery addresses that are linked to your company
2. Active: allows the account user to log in to the site with their account
3. Able to order: allows the account user to place orders on the site with their account
4. Able to view prices: allows the account user to view the prices of products on the site

7. Has a limited budget: prevents the account user from having to wait for their order to be validated when they are placing an order on the site and not using the online payment method, if the order is within the defined budget.

Why give a user a limited budget and how is this managed?
Limiting the budget for a user can be useful when creating an order because it means the user does not need an online payment method, while also restricting the amount that can be spent.
There are four scenarios for a user with a limited budget:
There are four scenarios for a user with a limited budget:
1. If the user exceeds the defined limit, the order will be blocked and an email will be sent to the account manager, who may authorise the order. Once Etilux is informed of their approval, the order can be prepared by our teams and an email will be sent to the user who placed the order to inform them that this order has been validated.
2. If the order is refused, it will not be prepared by our teams and an email will be sent to the user who placed the order to inform them that their order has been rejected.
3. If the user does not exceed their spending limit, the order will be validated automatically and will not be blocked.
4. If the user exceeds their spending limit, but they use an online payment method, the order will not be blocked.
I am already one of your customers, but I have never placed an order on your site before. What do I need to do to place an order online?
If you are a customer liable for VAT: you can fill in the account-creation form for customers who are liable for VAT to create your account. An email will be sent to the site administrator so they can validate the creation of your account.
If you are a customer who is not liable for VAT: You can either create an account directly online with our account creation form for non-VAT customers or contact us to create an account on our site and link it to your customer number in our system so you can retrieve your order history.
