Introduction

The Clients page lists all the clients you've added to your firm. A client is a unique contact—represented by an email address—for an individual person. Clients are different from accounts, groups, and Households. The Clients/Client Portals page gives you access to create, edit, and delete clients, as well as manage clients' portal access, check the client portal status, and more.

We recommend creating a client entity for each of your clients even if you don't plan on enabling client portal access. This will make it easier to take advantage of features we have planned for the future.

The following are some important rules about clients:

Actions You Can Take on the Clients/Client Portals Page

The Actions menu lets you take action on client records on the Clients page. Once you've selected one or more clients, you can complete the following tasks using the Actions menu: 

Create, Edit, or Delete a Client

Create, edit, or delete a client record, add it to Households, and manage client portal access for the client. For more information, see Create, Edit, and Delete a Client.

You can select all the records by clicking the check box in the column heading. For more selection-related actions, including selecting a single page, clearing all selections, and viewing only the selections, click ˅.

Track and Manage Client Portal Status

You manage client portal activity on the Clients/Client Portals page as well as client records. Columns on the page tell you the client portal status, a preview of the portal exactly as the client sees it, outstanding actions in the client record, and the status of client portal password authentication links.
