Watch an entire list

What it does

Watching sends you an email when something changes on a company: name, address, status, activity codes, members, new GEMH filings and more. Instead of turning it on company by company, you flip one toggle on the list and every company in it is covered.

The toggle is a state of the list, not a one-off action. While it is on, every company you add later is watched automatically.

Premium required. Lists and notifications are available on premium accounts. See plans and pricing.

The flow

1

Advanced search by VAT list

In Advanced Search open the VAT/GEMH list section and paste your VAT numbers or GEMH numbers, one per line. Up to 1,000 codes. Turn on With the other filters if you want your list to also pass through the rest of the filters. Otherwise the list ignores them and returns whatever it finds.

What triggers a notification

  • Identity: name, status, legal type, end date
  • Address: region, city, municipality, postal code, street and number
  • Contact: email, phone, website
  • Activity: activity codes (KAD) and stated purpose
  • Members and partners: who joined, who left
  • Registry suspension: suspension, reason, date
  • New GEMH filings, public contracts, EU subsidies

Notification limit

Up to 10 emails per hour per user, shared between companies and people.

When you hit the limit, the last email says so in its subject. Changes that do not fit are not lost: they are sent on the next check of that company.

Good to know

  • Removing a company from a watched list stops watching that company
  • Turning the toggle off stops watching every company in the list
  • The same company can sit in several lists, the email is sent once
  • Smart lists have no toggle: their members change dynamically with the criteria
  • Everything you watch is collected in the Watchlist
