Customer Portal Home Page

The view presented to customers upon logging into their portal account is determined by the account class. Within the account classes setup, system users (with permission 23) can choose the portal home page view customers associated with a specific account class will see from the Customer Portal tab. This article provides examples of each view and what can be expected when a site is inactive.

Permissions

The following permission must be enabled for a system user to change the 'Customer Portal Home Page' in the Account Class Setup.

Inactive Site Access

When a site is marked as 'Inactive,' customers may be granted restricted access to view the site's service history if "Service History Only" is selected in the 'Enable Viewing Inactive Site' setting for the account class. Additionally, if the 'Enable Report Access' option is set to "Yes," in the account class, customers will also have access to their reports and documents.

Customer Portal Homepages

The account class provides the following homepages. Expand each section to view examples.

The Standard homepage offers essential account management features and service details.
