Give clients and contacts access to Client Centre

You can give clients and contacts access to Onvio Client Centre to collaborate and securely share and sign documents.

Before you start

  • Make sure you're assigned to a permission group that has
    Onvio Setup
    enabled.
  • Make sure all contacts that aren't business clients have a primary email address and the
    Entity Type
    is set to Individual in Setup > All Contacts.
  • Make sure all business clients have an individual contact listed as a relationship.
  • Each Client Centre user must exist in a relationship to a client to be able to see documents and tasks in their portal.
  • You can only give access to Onvio Client Centre one client or contact at a time.
