Getting started

Welcome to Keelo! This guide gets you from logging in for the first time to having an appointment ready for creditors.

Your dashboard

When you log in, the Admin Dashboard shows every appointment in your organisation in a sortable table.

  • Search by company name or ACN.

  • Filter by appointment type (Liquidation / Voluntary Administration) or by appointee.

  • Sort by company name, type, or appointment date — click any column header.

  • Click any row to open that appointment, or click + Add Appointment to create a new one.

  • You need Editor access to create appointments.

  • Practitioners you want to appoint must already exist in Keelo. If they don't exist yet, contact your admin to grant them access.

Creating a new appointment

  1. From the admin dashboard, click + Add Appointment

  2. Fill in the details of the company under liquidation/administration

    tip

    When pasting an ABN or ACN, spaces and dashes are automatically stripped — you don't need to clean the number first.

  3. Fill in the Admin Details

  4. Configure advanced settings

  5. Click Add Appointment to create the appointment.

You can change these details later from General Settings.

  5. Configure portal FAQs — pre-empt common creditor questions. Optional but recommended. → Add FAQs

What's next

Once your appointment is creditor-ready, here's where to go next:

  • Reviewing claims — review submitted claims, admit for voting/dividends or request for more information.
  • Running a meeting — prepare for and run a live creditors' meeting.
  • Exporting — download claims, voting results, or the full appointment as a ZIP.
