Aspire offers Customer Portal 2.0, granting customers web and mobile access to their proposals, invoices, and requests, formerly known as issues in Customer Portal 1.0. Companies can now brand the customer portal with their logo and preferred color scheme. Each field service company's URL for accessing the customer portal is unique. To grant customers access to the Customer Portal, the system administrator must enable it and send the customer an email invitation.
Setting up the Customer Portal
The Customer Portal is enabled and configured from the Customer Portal 2.0 tab of the Application Configuration screen in Aspire.
Inviting Customers to the Portal
You can invite your company’s customers to sign up for Customer Portal 2.0. Initiate these invitations from the Contacts Search List screen by selecting the Send Customer Portal Invite option in the Bulk Actions menu. The Enable Customer Portal option must be on to access this menu option. Emails will be sent from the user who initiates the invite from Aspire. Upon selecting the Send Customer Portal Invitation option, Aspire will display the Bulk Email Customer Portal Invitation screen.
The screen elements on the Bulk Email Client Portal Invitation screen are described in the following table.
| Screen Element | Description |
