Settings — Client Portal
What This Does
The Client Portal Settings page lets you configure what features are available to your clients through the client portal. The portal allows clients to view their tasks, download documents, and upload documents — accessible via WhatsApp or the FINEXO client portal.
How the Client Portal Works
- Clients access the portal by sending a message to the FINEXO WhatsApp number: 8619927322
- The client's WhatsApp number must be added as a Contact Person linked to their client profile in FINEXO PMS
- Only clients whose WhatsApp number is registered as a contact person can access the portal
