This guide walks you through everything you need to get up and running with OMBA. You will create your account, access your workspace, orient yourself in the interface, configure the first module relevant to your business, and record your first transaction. The whole process takes under an hour for most businesses.
If you need hands-on help during setup, the Remodel IT Consult support team offers guided onboarding. Reach them through the Help link in your OMBA navigation bar or visit remodelitconsult.com.
1

Create your account

Go to remodelitconsult.com/onboarding and complete the registration form. You will provide your business name, contact details, and a primary administrator email address.Once you submit the form, Remodel IT Consult will provision your OMBA workspace and send you a confirmation email containing your unique workspace URL, your username, and a temporary password.
Keep the confirmation email. Your workspace URL is specific to your organization and is how you and your team will access OMBA going forward.
2

Log in to your workspace

Open your workspace URL in a browser. You will see the OMBA login page.
  1. Enter the username from your confirmation email.
  2. Enter your password (use the temporary password on first login).
  3. Click Log In.
If this is your first login, OMBA will prompt you to set a new password. Choose a strong password and save it somewhere secure.
Do not share your login credentials with other team members. Each person on your team should have their own user account. Your administrator can create additional accounts from System Administration → User Accounts.

Navigate the workspace

After logging in, you land on the main workspace. Take a moment to orient yourself:
  • Sidebar (left): Lists every module your administrator has enabled for your role — Sales, Finance, Inventory, Purchases, HR, Payroll, Banking, Fixed Assets, Expense Management, Reports, and System Administration. Click any module name to open it.
  • Top navigation: Shows your organization name, notifications, and your user profile menu where you can update your password or log out.
  • Main content area: Displays the dashboard or page for the module you have selected.
Your sidebar may show fewer modules than the full list above. OMBA uses role-based access, so you only see modules your administrator has assigned to your account.

Set up your first module

Before recording transactions, configure the module most relevant to your core business operation. Below are the key setup tasks for the most common starting points.If you sell products or services — start with Sales & Inventory:
  • Go to Inventory → Products and add your products or services, including names, units of measure, and pricing.
  • Go to Sales → Customers and import or add your customer records.
If you buy from suppliers — start with Purchasing:
  • Go to Purchases → Suppliers and add your supplier records with contact details and payment terms.
If you manage employees — start with HR & Payroll:
  • Go to HR → Employees and add your employee records.
  • Go to Payroll → Pay Groups and configure pay frequencies, earnings types, and statutory deductions.
For all businesses — configure Finance:
  • Go to Finance → Settings and set your fiscal year start date. This ensures that all financial reports use the correct accounting period from day one.
You do not need to complete every module setup before recording transactions. Start with the module your team uses most, then add others as you go.

With your products, customers, or suppliers in place, you are ready to record your first transaction.To make a sale:

  2. Click New Sale or go to Point of Sale for counter transactions.
  3. Select the customer (or leave as walk-in), add line items, apply any discount, and select the payment method.
