Introduction

Households group together accounts, groups, and clients. An easy way to think of a Household is that the clients generally share similar goals and can view all associated accounts and groups. A key differentiator between groups and Households is that you can run dynamic reports on groups, but not on Households.

You can access Households by clicking Households on the Accounts menu.

For detailed examples of how to take advantage of Households, visit Introduction to Accounts, Groups, Households and Clients.
